Happy Birthday Sydney and Merry Christmas to All!

Sydney turned 12 on December 19th - I can't believe that she is so big!  She had two crazy parties, one with her dance friends and one with her cute neighborhood buddies and kids from school.  She is such a fun girl. . .we love her!  Time goes so fast!

We went to Grandma Moss' for Christmas Eve dinner and craziness.  We wonder how long Grandpa and Grandma will last having us all come to their house!  They are patient and we are thankful because it is the kids favorite day of the year.
Oh yeah - and go UTAH... we do not brain wash our children.

Christmas morning is always awesome around here.  Luckily, we got to sleep until 7:40am, but only because we threatened them.  Everyone seemed happy with their Santa treasures, except for a few little glitches. . .  Lizzie got a new ipod, but our computer crashed on Christmas Eve, so no songs on the new ipod - sorry Lizzie.  Sydney got a new camera, but no memory card (WHAT!?  Who sells a camera without a memory card?  That would be Sony, note to self, remind Santa to check for memory cards.)  Alex got an XBOX 360 - awesome- but only one controller -not awesome- dad couldn't play with him, bummer, didn't really think dad would want to - who knew?!  All in all, lots of cool stuff, happy kids, tired parents and a very messy house - which by the way I should go clean, but instead I am blogging on our new, not part of the Christmas budget, computer.   Again, who knew?!


This game Sydney got called "WHOONU"  is a super fun family game - we have spent hours playing already.  Totally worth picking up.


Ask Lizzie, she will tell you, "Sponge Bob is my life."  Whatever, sounds like a pretty pathetic life to me, but I guess if your new ipod doesn't have any songs on it, it might be the next best thing...  
and we heard Him exclaim as he drove out of sight -
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!
