Sledding

After we popped our first tube on the first run we went back a couple of days later and had a successful trip.

Raini was way excited on our way to the hill :)

Nieces and Nephew

So my mother-in-law wanted me to take pictures of her grandkids for her house. So I totally have no experience in REALLY taking pictures, and I haven't purchased editing software yet, but it was fun anyway, they were cute....

Cabin Fun!!

My Parents and our little family went up to the cabin a couple Saturdays ago, and let me just tell you it was beautiful. The sun was out and it was just plain peaceful. Raini only wanted to ride on the Snowmobiles with Grandpa! Which is a huge step for her because she really doesn't like men all that much. However, most of the time Raini just wanted to stay in the warm cabin and eat oranges with Grandma. Bode couldn't get enough of the outdoors. We went sledding, he went down some pretty big hills. Also, he loved the snowmobiles!! Besides that there wasn't any water, the line must have been frozen so it was fun trying to find ways to be creative and melt snow for hot chocolate and to flush the toliet, it's all about making memories right! Overall there is nothing like sitting in a warm cabin roasting hotdogs over a fire while enjoying the plush red shag carpet on your toes! We had a blast!

Crazy Bode

Sledding!

Raini and Her oranges

Grandpa trying to find the most logical way to get the tube from the car to the cabin. HA HA!

So when Bode woke up he walked right past the Christmas Tree and into our room. When I asked him if Santa came he said casually, "nope didn't see him out there." Then I tried to explain to him that he probably wouldn't see him, but he would know if Santa left him presents...He went and looked again and decided that Santa did come. Gotta love those kids....maybe a couple more years and we will have the Santa thing down! So the kids loved their toys....

And so did I. I thought I would never get one of these in a million years!!! I was shocked! Love you Clinter!

Pedersens Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve was a blast. We were all spoiled, from Kim and Doug! There was great compan, great food and alot of fun new presents to play with. What more can you ask for?

Cousin Christmas Gift Exchange

So the last couple of years we have drawn names and decided to switch gifts with Clint's family. It has been so fun and most of all the kids love picking out presents for that certain Cousin. So Dax got Raini this Cinderella costume, who do you think it looks better on?

Bode got a Text and Learn little hand help computer game, he loves it!!

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow....

So the kiddos really wanted to get out in the snow so I put on Snow Clothes and let them loose! They had a blast!

This is what big brothers are for!

Can we say Christmas Story?
