Our little Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas despite all the sickness that entered our home for the holidays! The kids have been healthy all year, so it just figures that they would get hit hard right now. But we got lots of cute pics and probably only a mommy can tell by looking into their eyes that they were sick :) Fevers, coughs and LONG sleepless nights didn't affect the kiddos excitement however!
It was a good reminder to me that no matter how hard we try to make things picture perfect...it's not going to happen this side of heaven and that's ok. This life makes us long for eternity with Christ when he returns!

We have so enjoyed spending an extended time with my family. What a blessing!

Weston was SO excited to wear his Christmas tie...even though we didn't go anywhere :)

Cousin Ryder

This kid LOVES to eat these days and consumes more than his brother and cousin combined!






Silly Grandpa!



I made a fun and different dinner Christmas night: Brussel Sprout and wild rice salad, Chipotle Cranberry sweet potatoes, and Halibut baked in parchment paper.

Your boys are really cute and you're such a creative chef! I remember at SemWives your food was always so good. I really like your apron! Can I know where you got it?
