Lights at Temple Square

We went to see the lights with the Uries and it was so cold! But we had a great time. :)

Christmas Dress

Christmas

Christmas was lots if fun. Spent Christmas Eve day with Uries baking cookies for Santa and delivering treats with grandpa. Evening at the Gma and Gpa Broughs and back to Harvey's for nativity. We had a fun morning and then spent the afternoon back at the Uries. It was great to spend the days with family!

Sibling Gifts

This year we had the kids draw names and then they had to make a gift for the sibling they picked. It was so sweet to see them all thinking hard of what would be the perfect gift and creating it. 

Hannah found a gift tag with a moving Santa she was so excited to give Matthias. She also made him a puzzle of his name. 

James wrote Hannah a poem about snow and cut out a snowflake for her. Then drew a picture of her on the gift tag.

Matthias made Hyrum a rattle with an empty toilet paper roll we found at a Gma Broughs and some rice. 

Hyrum had James so we traced his hands to make the antlers for a Pokemon that we then made a spec sheet for. 

This was a lot of fun to do this year and I hope to continue. 

Trains Trains Trains

While in Utah my mom and dad took us to a fun train store to see Santa, drive trains, and even ride one. They also have friends with a huge train set up so we went there as well. All the kids loved the train day! And now Hyrum knows exactly what train and choo choo mean so he gets really excited to see all the ones on the track near out house.

Snow!

For Christmas this year we went out to Utah. The kids were so excited to see snow and had a blast playing out in grandmas yard. They had snow ball fights and made snow men. Hyrum even got to ride around in a sleigh!

Matthias turns 7!

Matthias had a birthday! He turned 7 this year and I can't believe how big he has gotten. Currently he loves Minecraft so he had a Minecraft cake and also got some Minecraft paper craft stuff. Also Legos and a new Lego game.

He is still so Matthias...crazy, happy fun all the time.

Love this guy!
