Christmas!

What a fun and busy Christmas we had this year. Class parties, Ward Parties, sweets to make and eat, Cousins and Grandparents to visit, we had a great time!

The boys posing in their santa that they got last year. They love to wear them all December long, Mclane and Tavin even wore theirs to school a couple of times! 

For our ward Christmas party Tavin and several kids in his CTR 5 class were asked to sing and dance to Felise nava dad!  While singing AND dancing were a bit much they decided to just have them dance and it turned out super cute! 

 Christmas eve isn't complete with out frosting cookies and making treats to pass out to the few friends we didn't get to earlier in the week, while we drive around and look at the Christmas lights! But first we need to open our Christmas eve PJ's!!

 Christmas morning and Santa didn't forget anyone!

 The boys made out rather well this year with Scooters and skylanders, legos, movies and Wii games, Lincoln logs, new shoes, and blankets!

 Teh day after Christmas we packed up and headed to Panguitch to see every one and do a little gift exchange with the cousins.

Also for Christmas we decided it was time to get a new puppy, Kenai was getting lonely and needed a companion. Lucky for us this little guy was in Richfield and needed a home!

Welcome to the Family Koda!

Odds and ends!

Every now and then I come across some pictures that didnt get into a post and are to cute to leave out!

Declan wrapped in daddies "smaga"

Our friend Kelly had her baby this summer and Declane loved her, he would stand by the stroller and always wanted to hold her!

Fun at the zoo with friends 

  Poor Declan had a rough year this year it started with this smashed thumb ( we don't stick our hands in the dogs mouth and try to make him chew on a stick!) 

Then he fractured his hand a couple weeks before Christmas while jumping off the couch, then two weeks later he was hit in the eye with a base ball bat and split his eye open!

A fun visit when Uncle Ross and Uncle Dave came and stayed with us while they did a bit of work on the apartments that Ross owns. 

 At school Mclanes class was taking their TCAP tests and to help the students no be afraid the school asked to send all the 3rd graders to school with a cape to help them feel like super heros and not be nervous about their tests! 

And in this house where you make one you must make three so all the boys got to have a super hero cape!
