Thank goodness for snow!


I know with this 2 week break from school, my kids would be killing each other if it weren't for this awesome snow hill/fort my kids and Matt built.
They have loved it. The first night they put tea candles for light, I was worried they would ask to sleep in it!

P.S to all worried about the collapse of snow caves, this one is not dug in past the tarp. No worries:)

Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!

Christmas Eve, the kids got matching P.J.'s from Disneyland. Addy fell asleep, so she didn't get to open hers.


Santa brought the very anticipated MP3 player for Coby.


He also brought Addy a stroller for her preemie cabbage patch named Dora, she was born August 18th. I wish it would have been the 19th. Santa brought lots of Lego's for Taylor. It was a great Christmas!!

The best part of Christmas, everyone being together!! Coby wanted to be wherever his Dad was, so he played his DS on the counter while they put Lego's together. What a great day!!

This will definatly be a Christmas to remember. We all had so much fun, and being there with so many people you love makes it even more special.

It's all part of the experience

Thanksgiving weekend is full of so many fun things to do. We decorated a gingerbread Train, we watched the Parade of lights, Matt had a root canal. The fun never ends with us!!

We went out in search of the Stone family Christmas tree. After a quick stop at Macey's for the only the necessities, beef jerky, doughnuts, bridge mix, chips, suckers, gummy fish, Dr. pepper, Diet coke, and of coarse some water. We were ready to hit the road. Our tree permit took us to Eureka (Vernon) area. I love it down there! Well, we looked, and we looked, and then finally there it was, the Stone family Christmas tree! It was huge, and it wasn't going in the yard, it was going in our living room.

See it fit!! The smell of pine now fills our house. There is nothing like the smell of a Christmas tree to really get the kids excited. The next thing we did was write the kids letters to SANTA! It was a perfect weekend!
