Congradulations Jarom!!

I just had to write and say Congrats to Jarom. He just finished his 7th grade basketball career Undefeated!! It sure was a fun year. They had a really good team that worked well with each other. He said he'll miss the games but not the practices! I won't really miss the practices either. Well, we have a few weeks break before the baseball season starts and then we'll have all the kids playing.

A Few Basketball Shots

Here are a few pics of Jarom as a Snowflake Lobo Jr. High Baketball player. My camera doesn't take very good action shots, so I waited until he was standing still. I love those skinny little legs under those shorts!! He's going to kill me for writing that, but oh well.

The Dirt Bike

Uncle Nik, bought a new dirt bike that is just the right size for the kids. He couldn't wait to come and show them and see if they'll "fit". To say they were excited is an understatement!!! To say mom is scared is another understatement !! I do trust Uncle Nik will be a good instructor though.

Fun in the Snow!!!

Not Long after moving in, we had a nice little snow storm. Of course the kids had to get out and throw a few snowballs around. Luckily I didn't get caught in the crossfire!

Beecroft Family Christmas Party

Aunt Paula seems to be good friends with Santa, because he always finds his way to her house for the annual Christmas Party! Josh is excited to see him.

I think Joey couldn't believe the elves didn't tell Santa about all the mischief he gets into, ha ha.

Olivia jumped right on Santa's lap and posed, wow! Usually I have

to beg her to smile for the camera.

Here Kyle and his Dad are in their usual positions discussing sports! Can you tell they are related? It was fun to be a part of the family party, it's only the 2nd one we have been to in the last ten years.

Kaleb, Blake and Hunter are in awe of the Tree and pondering the TRUE meaning of Christmas!

I'm so proud of them.

Early Christmas Spirit with Ella

After laying around sick all weekend the boys decided to relieve some boredom on the dog. They found some reindeer antlers and decided to put them on her. Ella wasn't to happy, so they first tried to sit on her.

The second attempt was to give her a rock to chew on(her favorite past-time) and then put them on. I think it lasted 2 seconds

After chasing her all over, Kaleb went and got a milkbone and held it up in the air. This is Ella patiently waiting for her treat while we slipped on the antlers and took the picture. The boys were really proud of themselves. I wish I could tell you that they stayed on after the treat but it wasn't the case.

Little Magdalyn

Three weeks ago I was able to go to the hospital with my cousin Mendie and watch little Magdalyn Parker be born, isn't she cute. Other than having my own babies, I had never seen a baby born and it was a really awesome experience, thanks Mendie!!! Isn't she a cutie, I'd like to think we will have a little bond. I'll admit though I'm glad Mendie is the one getting up in the middle of the night. ha ha
