Getting ready to ski!

learnin' how to stand on skis can be a tricky thing!

Headin down the mountain!

WaaHoo!! Our trip to sundance on Christmas eve! We had so much fun.........

ok, well some of us....

I'm workin hard....

I'm attempting to get the last year's worth of pictures and events put up on here so I can finally be caught up. It's kinda silly posting stuff for Christmas of last year and it's just right around the corner again! I get stuck, however, because when I post a couple pictures and attempt another post my whole computer shuts down. Hmm. Any suggestions?

The Invation of KIDS!

Holy cow! There are ony six here but their energy can add up to what seems like sixty!! Let's see.....Tori, Elden, Tim, Daniel, Shei and Kyler right smack in the middle!! Kyler was Tori's boyfriend at the time. He still pops in every now and then to say hi!!

First stop......Park City and the snow!!

What a day to fly in on! We had a beautiful snow the day Shei flew in for Christmas. She was so excited and didn't want to wait so we stopped in Park City on the way to Heber from the Salt Lake Airport! Shei put her new snow pants and coat on in the car so she could jump out and enjoy the new snow!! It's always like a wonderland when the snow falls, so peaceful as it dances down from the sky!

Uncle Dan

Piled high with beautiful babies! Just missing little Addi!

The stockings were hung....

....by the chimney (ok, actually just on the mantle since there is no fireplace there) with care.

Now the tree is a different matter all together! The kids and I worked hard to get it on the car and home and then set up! It was over 7 feet tall! The poor thing did not servive our house very well though! .......what do you mean you have to water it? yes, I forgot to water the dang thing. It got so droopy, we had to keep vacuuming and cutting off the bottom branches. I don't know that we will be doing a live tree anymore, unless Dan is there with us.
