Christmas 2013.... Yes I'm Blogging About that in March.

Ruckus aka Joseph chatting with "Mary"

Little C as the donkey.
What a good sport. Truly.

And Lo the Angel came.

Lou (on R) with cousin T.
Enter in the Wise men.

Moo the adorable shepherd.
Well,  kind of an aggressive shepherd at times with his crook.
The Baby played Baby Jesus.
Look how everyone flocks.
Overwhelming joy.
I love the symbolism.

Lou singing in his Christmas program. He's wearing the light blue shirt, he's the tallest boy with the tallest hair.
He did great! Always so proud of our Lou boy. 

The Beloved narrating the ward Christmas party.
Lou and Ruckus are the little sheep right in the middle.
Little C is a shepherd on the top row, right side.

Our tradition on Christmas Eve is to wake up early and purchase a Christmas tree.
This year our tradition didn't work out so well.
There were no trees to be had.
The Boys convinced Jed to cut one down from our backyard.
Maybe she always wanted to be a Christmas tree and we made her dream come true.
I choose to believe this...
and for some reason that the tree is also a girl.
Christmas Day
Matching Jammies.
Hurrah.
Little C loves matching pajamas.
No, that's a lie.
But I really, really do.

Our normally happy baby was not thrilled to be awake this early.
But really, how cool is that?
We forgive you sweetheart.
Thank you for being such a good sleeper.
Look at the love abounding from Moo even though his sisters ornery.

I LOVE  this picture.
Oh, my cute Little C.

Lou and Ruckus with their new Leap Pads.

Moo conquering a ball.


Ruckus modeling his new helmet and sunglasses.

Uncle Jordon and Aunt Amy came over to visit.
We love these people.
They spoiled the kids with the Turbo movie and bottled coke for me.
Christmas makes me happy.

Ruckus swinging
Grandma shot these cute photos for us.
Jed's sister Ruth and her family watched all of our older kids, took them sledding , giving The Beloved and I the day and night off.
Thank you!!!!

Lou sledding
He loves adventure and going fast.


Moo bonding with Little Grandpa.

He's teaching Grandpa about my smart phone. :)

Merry way-late Christmas!
