Christmas 2011

This year we went over to Grandma and Poppies to enjoy a wonderful meal and listen to the Christmas story as well as hear the musical talents of some of the cousins. I didn't take a lot of pictures this year of the kids opening their gifts but they had a wonderful Christmas morning and Aunt Shelley was even able to join us!

I thought it would be fun for the kids to visit Gardner Village...not so much. It was freezing! We took a few picks and saw the elves and left.

June...Tee-Ball Time

This was Dallin's first time playing tee-ball though he only had to hit it off the tee once. His team were the CUBS. The boys were so fun to watch and Dallin was a natural :) Next up for Dallin, basketball!
