Christmas Day

We had a wonderful Christmas just the four of us.  Some how the boys managed to fool Santa again this year and he was very good to them.

Dalton with his new iPod touch.  He is having so much fun with it.

Zane with his video camera and tri pod.  He is a crazy filming guy.

Dalton got the Nerf gun that he wanted, there has been darts flying all around here.

Zane got a Nerf sword and has been battling his brother.

Daddy got a lot of goodies, these are his new shoes.

I was so excited to get the Kitchen Aid mixer, I have not used it yet, but I cannot wait to.

Zane also got a skate board from Santa, he is dangerous.

Dalton got a new bike, he had started trying ticks, very dangerous.

Zane trying his tricks.

Dalton went for an early morning ride.

This is Brian playing his Bird Hunting game on the Wii.  It is a lot of fun for us older gamers.

Then we spent the rest of the day in our PJ's and watched movies.

This is Dalton with is big lobster tail from our Christmas dinner.

We had the best day together.

Chistmas Eve

We were back in Texas for Christmas Eve.  We had our neighbors over for Christmas Eve dinner, we carried on the tradition of eating on Grandma Woody's dishes on Christmas Eve.  Then we all opened our one gift we all got new PJ's.

Then it was time to read our Night Before Christmas book.  I have been reading this book to them since Dalton's first Christmas.

The boys were ready to get to bed so they could see what Santa would bring them.

Milk and cookies for Santa and carrots for the reindeer.

Our beautiful tree.

Christmas with the Cousins

While we were in Missouri the boys got to have Christmas with their cousins Brayden and Camden.  They all had a big time, hanging with each other.

The boys gave Camden a light saber.

Brayden also got a light saber.

Then the battle began, we think all brothers should have some sort of swords to battle with, no matter how young.

We also gave them a tent with a tunnel, this is Dalton trying to squeeze through it.

All four stuffed in the tent, I am not sure it was meant for kids as big as Dalton but they all fit.

Dalton and Uncle Zachey

Dalton took a turn in the helmet too.

It was a fun night to spend with the cousins.

When we traveled to Missouri we got to have Christmas with Brian's family the Pirch's.

It was a great day and glad to get to spend time with family.

To Missouri

We traveled to Missouri just before Christmas.  We were glad to see our families.

Dalton and Zane just outside of Mema and Papas house, looking for snow to play in.  There was not much this time, but they still had fun being outside.

Then we headed to play at Zach and Amy's with the cousins.

Brayden on his bid wheel, too fun.

Camden checking out the other boys being crazy.

Christmas Program

Dalton had a Christmas program at school on Dec. 14th.  He looked very handsome.

Dalton and Zane goofing around.

Dalton was so serious and was stressed to make sure he did a good job.  This was for a grade and of course he did not want to mess up.  He did great and had fun with it.

Baseball in December

Dalton is playing baseball with a new team this winter, the Cyclones.  He is coached by Mike "Big Tex" Smith. 

The first day it was warm almost 80 degrees.

Then Sunday it was in the 40's.  This is Dalton and Blake sharing a blanket before they played.

The next weekend it was cool and very foggy.  We could bearly see the outfielders.

Then it warmed up and was a great day.  Dalton is loving playing on this team.
