Not the most comfortable socks...

Annelise is in the Cook Cougar Choir and sang in a cute performance last week. They did so good...and surprisingly sounded great! I have the picture from that performance on my other camera...so I will post it later. Then, in Annelise's class her teacher, Ms. Hellewell planned a Christmas program. It was darling. It really helps bring the Christmas spirit when you see sweet little kids sing. I loved it, and Annelise enjoyed it as well. She is such a little performer!

And the prank war continues too...Ok...so this is how it started.
1) Josh goes to Chicago with some friends...and they stow away something very incriminating (x-rated so I cannot explain) in his suitcase for me to find and confront him on. (they called me and we arranged it all) So I taped Josh's reaction when I confronted him and played it for the guys...they loved it.
2) We had to get them back...so we did this...2 signs, 2 Utah fans' houses. Keep in mind they both are MAJOR Utah fans. 
The sign didn't have much of a life span if you catch...
3) They did this back...
4) So, last weekend we got them back again by wrapping up a framed picture of Gavin for our white elephant gift at a neighborhood party. We passed around the picture after the receiver opened it...and got lots of laughs.
5) It's their turn now...

Annelise turned seven on the fifth...wow. I cannot believe my oldest kid is 7! She is such a grown up sweet heart. She is so fun to spoil so I notice that I tend to want to. She is genuinely so excited about life and is a compassionate, strong girl. Happy Birthday Wees.
To celebrate she took her cute carpool girls to the movie Tangled in 3D. It was so cute to see them grabbing at the air & really enjoy the effects. She is a blessed with good friends.

The first chance to play in the snow...fun...but sure didn't last long. It was under 20 degrees outside. I do love the snow. I always knew growing up I was going without during the winter.

Thanksgiving this year was at Chelsey's beautiful home. It was a ridiculously yummy meal (of course since the Yeates' are all great cooks). Charissa planned to have an organic meal with a fresh turkey and all. The girls got together the night before and made pies and laughed and talked. We then had a great meal the next day, watched Sherlock Holmes and planned where to go for the black friday shopping. I chose to sleep in this year. (good choice)
Then last week we had the Bowen party (Josh's mom's side of the family) and the kids (& adults) had a great time. Especially since Santa came to the partay! Aaron is the most obsessed with Santa of all the kids...he followed him around all night and while the other kids had their turn to sit on his lap...he sat right there and wouldn't move more than a few feet away. And when it was finally his turn Santa was..."well, since I know you are super excited hop up here!" Then Santa asked him what he wanted...so Aaron said..."I have been so good Santa." So Santa replies, "good, so a nice gift, like a football or something?" Aaron was quick to let him know he really wants Legos and a little car. I love to see how excited little kids get at Christmas...it really does make it so magical. Annelise told Santa to surprise her this year...letting him know she has been good. And Cole just cried. One more year and maybe he will be excited about Santa. Hopefully...

Twice! I attended Twilight's Eclipse opening night with some friends/neighbors ( obivously a long time ago...I just hadn't blogged about it) and then Harry Potter (Deathly Hallows) opening night as well! Both were fabulous movies!! I have no pics from when I went to Harry Potter...so no proof...but you can take my word for it. If you haven't seen either...you really should. But, of course, the books are better.I am not going to say which movie out of the two was better...but may I say that I loved the Harry Potter books alot more. And, not seeing a movie at midnight...is better too. :)

Aaron is now king of this throne. He actually has been for a few months now...I just forgot to update those who were anxiously waiting for this day (as I was).
