We had our Ward Christmas Party Friday night. Aiden and I (along with several other kids) had fun dancing to the music.
Shayla loved dancing too.
Then we had a visitor...SANTA! I had a hard time waiting for my turn to go see Santa. 
Then Saturday we travelled to Grandma's house. Uncle Danny and I have been having fun playing video games. I keep winning.
Stay tuned for next week's Christmas activities.
Ha-ha! Silly Mommy has a monkey tail on her head!
Yay! Aunt Missy and Grandma Denise have tails on their heads too!
Grandma and I had so much fun together. I'm going to miss her so much during Christmas.
Uncle Danny is home after his two year mission in Chile!
Me and Uncle Danny reunited at last!
Happy belated birthday!
Playing Tennis with Uncle Danny and he hasn't lost a beat. And speaking of beat, my Dad lost 0-6 against him in singles. Better luck next time Dad!
Welcome home Uncle Danny!
Orange you glad I enjoy my fruit?!
I love to play the piano with Aunt Shannon. One day I'll play as beautifuly as she does.
Vincent and I match and look so cute!
We had a blast exploring the space station module at the museum of flight.
We surprised Grandma by taking her to the Amelia Earhart exhibit. Grandma has always admired Amelia Earhart so naturally she loved the exhibit and wanted to stay much longer.
We all really enjoyed the space portion of the museum. I now love to say, "3, 2, 1, Blast Off!!", and then jump.
Grandma and I also encountered a friendly dragon. I thought that it was really funny.
I saw Santa!
Dad put up a lot more lights this year but still has some more to go. Yay Christmas lights!
The Kellys joined us for the Auburn holiday parade, dinner, and then we enjoyed driving around admiring the wonderful Christmas lights.
Wrapping up presents is almost as much fun as unwrapping them (at least for me).
Grandma and I simply had a wonderful Christmas time!
Aww, what's with the kissing guys? I want to play instead!
Grandma will still be here for a few days next week!
Super silly Aunt Shannon and Mommy.
Amber gave me a few pointers on the piano.
Baby Natalie is so cute! I was very concerned for her well being and made sure she was happy.
Mommy and Daddy.
Happy Thanksgiving!!
Dad stayed up all night driving to the Tri-Cities to get the sweet black Friday deals for everyone. He especially wanted to win the $500 gift card from Sports Authority but the lady behind him won it instead. Better luck next year Dad!
But what would Thanksgiving be without football?
Amber kicked it off and the game was on!
The guys got really into the game and clamored to intercept the ball. Can you say pass interference?
The cold got the best of us eventually so we moved inside for more games like mafia and the couch game where the boys won with style.
Thankfully the pass was clear and incident free as we made our way home with ease. 
Stay tuned for the new and improved Christmas light show by Uncle Ryan!
Hi Santa! We saw him at the mall right after I found this cool car to ride in. I'm going to see him again in a few weeks when he comes to visit my Mom's work.
By Jupiter that's a big planet!
Butterflies in the sky, I can fly twice as high, take a look!
The butterflies at the science center were flying all over the place and landing on us in abundance. I thought that it was hilarious when they landed on Mom and Dad but didn't like it when they landed on me. My parents laughed as I would exclaim, "Stop bugging me!".
I found out how to give new meaning to being one with an instrument.
It was a blessedly beautiful day for putting up Christmas lights even if the temperature was freezing. Dad and Ryan worked all day with only one disaster when a bolt broke under the weight of the lights seen here. Luckily, they were able to jerry-rig something together, repair the winch, and get the big tree in working order.
I had fun being a little helper.
But lights in the daytime can get boring so Mom and I went for a big hill adventure!
Daddy was having fun with his camera inside the big tree.
I have no idea how he did it but Dad turned Grandma's house into a Christmas Train!
Zachy and I are dino-buds. He taught me all about Velociraptors. Cree-cree!
Grandma's surgery went well and she came home Saturday. Even though she was recovering, I still loved every minute I had with my Grandma.
We love you Grandma! Thank you for helping Uncle Ryan with the Christmas lights, Dad. We're eagerly anticipating the 2009 Christmas light show during Thanksgiving!
