Christmas

Well another Christmas has come and gone. It always makes me sad once all the gifts are unwrapped and you pick up the mess--it goes so quickly. But this year was the best Christmas we've had in awhile due to Jyllian having such a great time with it all. She was excited about Santa, and opening presents. She was excited about all of the gifts she got. She just had a blast. She was definatly spoiled again by Santa, Grammie, Uncle Shane and of course us. But its easy to do. Next year will be fun with two little ones!
We spent Sunday night at Mom's house-eating dinner and opening a few presents there before Justin/I went to watch Fred Claus. Very cute movie by the way. Monday was spent finishing wrapping, buying last minute items for dinner and such and then going out to Shanes for Christmas Eve. We had dinner out there and of course opened more gifts. Justin got what he really wanted--a new coffee pot that also makes espresso and cappuccino. He has had fun today making cappuccino's and hot chocolate for everyone. I got a countertop oven which I have always been wanting. These were both from Shane. Jyllian got Disney Princess Lego's and VSmile Game System which Jyllian loved. She also got the VSmile Whizkid from Shane but opened that this morning. All in all it was a wonderful Christmas Eve capped off by a snowstorm that made sure we would have a White Christmas. Once we got home we got milk and cookies ready for Santa, and of course carrotts for his reindeer. Justin and Jyllian tracked Santa to see where he was at with his delivery of toys and we headed off to bed.
We awoke early this morning to see if Santa had come--and he had. Jyllian got a Barbie Jammin' Jeep which she had been saying for weeks now that she wanted, a beautiful rocking horse that my dad made for her, a digital camera, preschool learning center, clothes, babies, books and much much more. A very merry Christmas was had by all.
Hope your Christmas was wonderful and enjoy the slideshow.

My Little Pony LIVE!

We took Jyllian to her first live show...My Little Pony LIVE! It was at the Casper Events Center and she absolutely loved it. I enjoyed it as well. I think this will be the beginning to many more shows that Jyllian and I go to.
Because of the lights some of the pictures did'nt turn out the best but still you can get the idea :)

First Good Snowfall

We finally got snow this past weekend, enough for us to go sledding. Jyllian was excited to get to go sledding as she fell in love with it when we were in the mtns getting our Christmas Tree. So Shane, Justin, Jyllian and I all went over the park a couple of blocks away and went sledding. We all got cold, but Jyllian didn't want to stop. She cried when we finally said we had to go home. Her face was bright red it was so cold. But fun was had by all!
