Christmas at the Wards

For Christmas this year we spent it at my brother's house in Idaho Falls. My parents and my sisters were able to come up so it was a full house!I got there Wednesday to help Becky out and I made some sugar cookies and then Owen, Wesley, Becky and I frosted them. I sure love living so close and being able to spend time with my brother and his family; their kids are so cute!

Owen was pretty proud of his gingerbread man!

I think Wesley ate more frosting off his finger than he got on his cookie!


If you ever need a light bulb changed...Kyle is the man to ask!


Here are me and my sisters in our new PJ's



The tree Christmas morning!



It was so fun to see all the expressions on Owen and Wesley's faces as they opened their presents!




Madalyn had the most fun playing with the paper. Isn't she so cute!


Here is Kyle opening an rubiks cube, he loves those things and he can get all the sides the same color! It makes me very proud!!


Kyle got me a couple cute house decorations and a new Ipod home.

After kyle opened the two presents I had for him he was happy with them and played with his rubiks cube and after most of the presents were gone I surprised him with another present and as he opened it he gives me this look like I stole it from somewhere! I surprised him with a Play station 3 that was paid for from combined Christmas money that I knew we would get.


He was pretty excited!!!
He is too cute to not spoil!




I asked Laura not too long ago to make me a blanket expecting to get it in a few months but she
surprised me with it for Christmas! I was so excited and use it almost everyday! Thanks Laura!




Turns out that my dad still has his old ping pong skills!



The beautiful sisters!


My dad and me


The boys got a few nerf ball guns and us adults had a lot of fun shooting each other with them!



The day after Christmas we got tickets to go see Avatar in 3D and to make sure we got good seats, Kyle, Rosanne and I went an hour early to save seats for everyone and so we got the tickets and then went to the theater that the ticket lady told us and the theater was empty and we were excited because we could pick any seat! After a while it started filling up but not very much and were kind of confused but thought maybe it wasn't as big of a hit as we thought...then the previews come on about 20 minutes before the movie was supposed to start and we realize we were in the wrong theater! So luckily we were able to get decent seats because the other theater was pretty full! It was pretty funny but to be safe - always check to make sure you are in the right theater!
Thanks Kevin and Becky for hosting a great Christmas!

What fun memories! I'll remember to call Kyle the next time we need to change some lightbulbs ;o) How sweet to surprise him with the PS3. Love his expressions.
And Becky ... I love the photo of "the sisters" - you are not a picture of largeness but you are all a picture of pure beauty.
