Our first ER visit.

If you have a weak stomach, don't look at these pictures. I went up to Tremonton for the Monday holiday and an hour after we got there Randon was playing with the other kids downstairs and I guess had fallen off the bunk bed ladder or something and bit his tongue pretty bad. It was split open on the side and had a flap when he stuck his tongue out. Jon told me over the phone to take him in. They said they could stitch it but would have to sedate him and it would most likely heal on its own, just to watch for infection. But it is pretty narly and the pictures don't really look as bad as it did in real life. I was pretty proud of myself, I was calm and only got a little queezy.

This is a cute hat I made for Joelle.

Recap of 2008

A couple of my friends did this and I thought it was fun. Here is an unpublished (I think, I really can't remember) picture from every month of the year.

I realize I have a lot of random pictures of Joelle sleeping for some reason.

He looks so little. It's amazing how much they grow.

Merry Christmas

It was a wonderful year and hope 2009 will be great too.

Christmas eve and morning!

These pictures are all messed up but here are some pics of Christmas morning and Eve.

This one is the day after Christmas actually. More tubing in Tremonton.

The dollhouse after I put carpet in.

The girls loving it.

here's the front. This is the house I played with at my Grandma's when I was little so it's over 25 years old. I loved it and Joelle will too I hope. Thanks G-ma.

The beautiful princesses.

Our new jammies on Christmas eve. We have a lot of good video footage of opening Mrs. Clause's jammies and singing songs but I don't have a cord to put it on.

Making bird feeders also on Christmas eve.

Christmas morning at G-pa Tom's

Randon was sooo excited about this. He kept yelling "choo choo". He still does. He could care less what else he got.

The activities prior to Christmas

So we just got back from Twin Falls yesterday. And before that we were in Logan and Tremonton for a week. So I am excited to get back to our routine of things. It was a great time though. Here are some of the festivities we had.

Sledding at the golf course. James and Joelle loved this. Randon had a bad ending when he fell off the tube.
Cheese
Playing with Grandpa.

Making their own cookies. Randon really just loved eating the dough. Joelle really got into it though. I need to get a small roller for home.

This is before we left our house. We slept out under the tree. Aunt Taylor was with us too. We watched It's a wonderful life. Cried again.
