Christmas Fun!

 Merry Christmas Everyone!! I hope you had a great christmas. Our family has had a very nice Christmas at home this year, and it even included SNOW! The kids are excited about getting to play in the snow when they get to later! They all seemed to be very grateful for what they received this year.

The girls have enjoyed being on Christmas break, although Kylie has already asked if its time to go back yet. Gabryle has seemed to enjoy having the girls home to play with. He goes up to them and hollers "Sisters come on!" to get them to come and play with him. It's cute!

I've posted a few pictures from today for you! I hope you enjoy them. If I don't write again before the end of the year, have a happy New Year!

 Till Next Time!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

HAPPY 8TH BIRTHDAY TO MACKENZIE TODAY!!

Mackenzie's Birthday Party!

Yesterday, the seventh of December we had Kenzie's 8th birthday party. She seemed to have a blast this year. A few of her friends from school came to the party and she seemed to enjoy having them there with her.

This year she decided to have her party at Pink Swirls here in town. It's a neat little Live Culture Yogurt store. They make all of the yogurt in their store and from what I believe is organic.  All the kids were able to get half a cup of the yogurt and up to three toppings each. I also of course made her some cupcakes and made some tie-dye frosting to on top of them. She loved the cupcakes!

Jerrod and I got her a set of roller blades and she was thrilled she got a pair. She has been wanting some since she went to a friends birthday party at the skating rink a few months ago. She was also thrilled about getting a telescope and guitar. She seemed to have a great birthday party which I'm glad about. Enjoy the pictures!!

Till Next Time!!!

Peppers

 I would have assumed that after having at least 2 good frosts since the beginning of November, my peppers would have finally wilted and died. I was wrong!

As Gabryle and I got back home from taking Jerrod lunch today I noticed on the pepper plants what looked like the shape of a pepper. We went over and looked and sure enough I have 2 peppers that have started again. They are healthy and green peppers and at least 2 buds are on there also. I was shocked to see them. I had assumed that since we have already had a few frosts that it would have killed the plants.

After lunch Gabryle and I went out and he watered the plants for me. He had a blast doing that. Mom actually let him water the plants. After the water was soaked up in the soil he realized that if he holds the water long enough in one spot, it will cause it to make a hole which absolutely made him happy!

I guess since we are having such a mild winter, or what feels like spring temperatures, minus the rain they are still hanging on. I'm not complaining! Maybe I can get them to perk back up a little more and see what happens!!

Till Next Time!!
