Christmas Party at Miz Carols

Hagan had a party today at Miz Carols little school. He was so excited to get to open a present and to see Santa Clause. We wrapped a boy gift for someone to get and he happened to get his own which was great because that is what he wanted. He looks like he is telling Santa something good. I cannot believe that Christmas is here. It is going to be so much fun this year with the two boys. I know they are excited and cannot wait till Christmas day!!

Telling Santa he has been good!!!

Christmas Parade

John, Hagan, Keaton and I went to the fireman's supper to eat hamburgers and fries. After we were done, we went downtown and watched the christmas parade. It was really good and the boys loved watching the firetrucks. It was a little cold and theboys wanted to see Santa Clause but the line was way too long.

Ruidoso New Mexico 2010

John and I went on vacation to Ruidoso New Mexico and left the kids with Mimi! We had a really great time and caught up with some good friends. We stayed for 4 nights and I was missing my boys by the second night. The boys had a great time with Mimi and poppers. They went to the water park and critter feast in Lubbock. John and I stayed at a little cabin called breezy cabin in the mountains. We went to the horse races on Thursday and Friday which was a lot of fun. We also went to the casino a couple times and won a little money! Here are a few pictures of the cabin and us on vacation.

Family Pictures

We had our family pictures a couple of weeks ago and they turned out great! A few of our friends recommended this photographer, and I really thought she was great with the boys. It took about two hours but was well worth the time. Here are some of my favorite ones!!

1st Swimming time!!!

It finally started warming up so the boys got to go swimming at nana's. It took Hagan a little while to get warmed up so, I finally just put on his floaties and threw him in. After that, I could not get him out of the pool. Keaton was too busy and the pool was a little bit too cold for him so he just watched.

Late Pics from Easter 2010

I was going through my camera and found some Easter pictures. I figured I would post them so everyone could see the family. We had a family gathering that Sunday and hunted Easter eggs at the park. The kids had a great time looking for the "money eggs!" If you look at the family picture Keaton would not participate.

Family Picture of all the kids!!

Cupcake Fun!

The boys wanted to make cupcakes for their snacks today! Hagan wanted chocolate mix with chocolate frosting, which is unusual because he does not like a lot of chocolate. After I finished mixing the batter they both wanted the spoon so instead I gave them the beaters. It made me remember when I was little how my mother would do the same thing. They both loved it and of course wanted more when it was gone. If you look below the pictures do not do justice as to how much of a mess the kitchen was afterwards, but at least they had a great time!!
