Happy 12th Hunter!!

Hunter is officially a Young Man :) He turned 12 today and life is good! He got his cell phone for Christmas, is getting his braces off on Thursday and is loving playing basketball, just like he always has :) The day started with cinnamon rolls from Pillsbury, followed by school where he was spoiled rotten by his friends. Then this evening we went to dinner at Texas Roadhouse to celebrate, followed by practice, and finally, ice cream cake. It was a fun and busy day. We love Hunter so much and I especially appreciate the young man that he is becoming. Happy Birthday Bud, we love you lots!!

Martin Luther King, Jr.

Last night Hailey and Allie were upstairs playing and Hailey came down to show us a picture that she drew. Pretty cute :)I don't have Allie's or I would have put that on too, but they both did a great job!

Christmas at Granna's, part 2

We continued with Christmas morning at Granna's house. We all were there and had a lot of fun. The girls got some roller skates from Granna which they are already pros at. Hunter and Briggs got new basketball socks, which they were super excited about. They also got a fun new video game. Almost everyone got some sort of new BSU gear. Regan got...well, you will be able to tell by the picture at the end. Also Jami had a gal that she knows make the cute headband for Hailey, which I love. After we opened gifts at Granna's, my family ran to Grandpa and Grandma Ranstroms...but I left my camera :( We had a great time there too and got some fun stuff. After opening gifts, we went back to my mom's and had some yummy dinner, cleaned up, came home and CRASHED :) It was a fun day, but I was pretty tired by the end of it. I wouldn't change it for the world though. I love having our family so close and love that we can hang out with them. We had such a wonderful Christmas. The next day we all went to my Dad's house. Once again, I forgot my camera. UGH! But we had a great time and feel very blessed to have such a great and fun family! Belle didn't get in the "family" photo, so she had her picture taken all alone in her cute Christmas sweater. Ashlee bought Kipp a Bronco onsie for the baby...it was for the Denver Broncos though :) We got a kick out of it :)

Christmas is here...part 1

After Chineve, we went home, the kids put on their pj's,set out some treats for Santa, then they each got to pick out one gift to open. Then they all nestled down into Briggs' bed waiting for Santa to come. The next morning they waited until 7:00 am to wake us up, which was a Christmas Miracle. They were very happy with the things Santa brought them. Hunter got his cell phone, Briggs got his radio and Hailey got her i-pod and Wuggle pets??? I was a good girl too and got a new phone and Drew got some new hunting gear. It was a great Christmas morning! Next, we were off to Granna's for more Bran Muffins, a favorite and must on Christmas morning, and fun...to be continued.
