Christmas 2011

Another great Christmas!

Jantzyn got this cool sparkling snowflake wand from Santa and he had all the kids in line say "I wish it would snow" and it started snowing. It was so cool. She loved it!
she listened very carefully to what Santa had to tell her.
We also had our annual Losee Family Christmas party. It started with yummy food and Grandma/Grandpa's



Then we had the nativity. Jorrin was the prophet Samuel fortelling of Jesus' birth.
Jaicelyn was an inn keeper turning Joseph and Mary away.
Jantzyn was the angel that "brought good tidings of joy"
Jadyn and Tavin were shepherds and since they didn't have a speaking part they rocked it after with their musical staff instruments.
Then we headed over to Robyn's for gifts, games and more food.
Most of the girls got JB pj's and pillow cases.
Jadyn got a BYU pillow case along with the boys.

Christmas Morning.
This is what time we went down to wake up the girls. It would have been even later if I wouldn't of had a bad dream that woke me up.

December 2011

December is always one of my favorite months. It was filled with Singing performances, Dancing perfomances, lots of family traditions like looking at lights and watching our favorite Christmas movies (Mr. Kruger's Christmas, A Christmas Story, Elf, The Grinch, and many more), reading lots of Christmas stories. This year we tried an example from the book "The Last Straw". The girls picked names each week and had to do secret services for that person all week. Each time they did the service they got to put a star on our board. Jantzyn definitly had the most stars. Jaicelyn got her cast off and we had lots of family visit. I loved it!

What's December without Jaice's Coyote Crooner Christmas Concert....
and singing at the Dicken's Festival. Terry took the girls this year while I was out my work party in Las Vegas.

Jantzyn performed for her dance studio's Charity concert. She did a great job!!

Jacielyn finally got her cast off after 4 long weeks


Trying out the auto settings on my new camera!
Our littlest visitor of the month... Jenna
Go 49'ers!!!
my girls can't get enough of her.

November 2011

Our November consisted of the usuall....

Thanksgiving...after a yummy dinner with Terry's extended family the kids always unwind playing games and running around while the adults look through the ad's for black fri.
We also had the thanksgiving soccer tournament that both Jaice and Jady were in that resulted in.....
Jaicelyn's first broken arm. She got kicked really hard by a ball that a girl was kicking, heading toward the goal, Jaicelyn stepped in front and sacrificed her body to save the goal.
Jadyn's team won their division. They got to play the girls from Ogden that knocked them out of the running for state. It left good to get a little revenge.
Jadyn's awesome team with their medals.
