Last day of 2008

We have had a wonderful holiday season and it was so much fun watching Isaac opening his presents. He was so cute with each present and he wanted us to open everything the minute it was unwrapped. He made out with several Thomas the train engines, track and cars from the Disney movie, Cars. He has played so well with his new toys. He especially loves riding his new scooter around the house. We were able to spend a lot of time with family and enjoyed that. We want to wish everyone a Happy New Year.

Trying to get Isaac to sing Silent Night.


You will need to turn the volume way up. This is one of the many takes. He kept running to the camera to see what he had done.

Almost Ready

So I am almost ready for Christmas. Gary and I wrapped all the gifts up and let Isaac play with the wrapping paper tubes once we were done. He had so much fun and so did we. Here are some pictures of the war and singing into the tube.
Isaac is excited for Santa to come even though he refused to sit on his lap. He just tells everyone that Santa is going to bring him presents and trains. I am really excited to see him with the gifts this year.
We want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Time to update.

So the weather had been nice up until this weekend when we were hit with a pretty good snow storm. I love the storms here though because after it snows the sun usually comes out and most of the snow on the streets melts away. Isaac had a great time playing in the snow this morning too!
We have enjoyed going to Red Butte Gardens this year and the weather was so nice we didn't even have to wear coats in December. Here are a couple pictures of our outing.On Friday night my work at the U had their Christmas party. I love this party because the food is delicious and it is a fun night out for Gary and I. They bring in a company that sets up casino tables and you get to play with their money and at the end you can cash in your chips for raffle tickets. We headed straight for the craps tables and spent two hours playing. We had one roller who did great and we made a lot of money on that turn. We ended up making money so it was a fun night. Gary won a headlamp for that camping trip we might go on someday.
I also tried to take Isaac to see Santa with his cousins. Well lets just say the coloring book that Santa gave him to sit on the stool was as close as he would get. Clara wouldn't even get that close. I was okay with that because the Santa even scared me. He even answered his cell phone while holding Macey. I might try to go to a different one later. We are excited for the holidays and I know Gary is even more excited to have some vacation after Christmas.
