Leading Up To Christmas...

So once again I'm a little behind on the whole posting thing, but get ready...cause here it comes!! First, our bestest friends Taylor and Sarah came to visit us from Colorado the beginning of December. It was a quick trip, but we loved seeing them and they loved chillin' with our babes. Haddyn was barely talking when they moved and Stetson was non-existant, so it was fun for them to see the changes. We can't wait for summer to come already so we can go see them! Here are a couple of cute pics...Next on the agenda was a family Christmas party in Utah the weekend before Christmas. Haddyn finally got to meet Santa for the first time. She has been talking to a Santa across the road in a hot air balloon for a month and saying that he is sleeping because, obviously, he is not moving. She has just wanted a horse and a cowboy hat and she tells him over and over. Well, as we expected, she wasn't quite as eager to talk to him and sit on his lap once he was up close and alive :) She still made her request from afar and Stetson took his turn too.Haddyn got to take a few swings at the pinata this year too and that was so much fun for her. She loves doing what the older kids are doing and because she is so much younger than all of our neices and nephews she is spoiled rotten and pretty much can get them to do exactly what she wants them to. Here she is taking a swing...We had an awesome snow storm one Sunday that made for PERFECT snowman snow, so Scott and Haddyn built a huge leaf filled snowman. However, Haddyn was ready for a nap like an hour before and she was not a very happy little love, so we did the best we could for pictures. Good times!!In this last one she is shaking Frosty's hand...Next was my candy making day. I will show you what I was doing, what Stetson was doing and what Haddyn was doing.
Me:Stetson: (He had been crying and Haddyn "consoled" him and I turned around to find him sleeping, tucked in with her blankie and she had snuggled her teddy in next to him, but it's underneath the blanket. It was very cute.)Haddyn: (I hear her saying "Yee Haw, I a cowboy!" and looked around to see her riding the broom through the house with her sunglasses on. She is such a funny girl!)
