Ward Christmas Party

Church Party

Just thought I would add some photos from the church party. Courtney was lucky enough to be asked to play Mary. She loved it. The twins were shepherds. It was funny to watch how embarrassed and shy they got on stage. All in all it was a great program. I will have to ask someone how to post a slide and journaling at the same time.
I had to post two of Cael with Santa because he didn't want to sit on his lap. I told him just to go stand by him and Santa picked him up. LOL Notice his face of "Why, Santa, Why?"

Marshmallow Creme


Cason and Cael






I decided to make some fudge today to put some goodie plates together. To keep the twins busy I let them try some of the Marshmallow Creme that was left in the jar. They had so much fun playing in the jar. Mom had a little work ahead of her when it came to cleaning up. But they loved it. Now they want to open the unopened jars and eat it. Whoops.

Blog it.

You know the place where your kid (Cason) builds something so you can blog it. Thats the place that I am now at. :D I think they like our blog just as much as I like posting.

Best Buddies

Cason and Cael



Cason and Cael love playing the wii. I am not sure if they realise how lucky they are to have each other. Notice all the room they have on the couch. I find them like this all the time, right next to each other. They watch tv this way, play the wii this way, and the play the laptop this way. Funny. The things they can come up with as a couple. I just love these two and hope they are always this close.

Twins school pix

Cason
Cael

Cael and Cason 2008
So I have never seen school pictures like this before. I just loved them. When the school said they were doing school pictures I never would of thought they would turn out so cute. It would be nice if all my kids had ones like this. Then I wouldn't have to take them any where else.
Anyways I just wanted to share. The lady that takes them is named Jenn Olson. She does family picture also.

Our Christmas Tree FHE

Cael and Cason turn FIVE

Cason and Cael

It took about five blows a piece to get the candles out.
Cael and Caosn loved all the presents.
As we looked back at the last five years we have been very busy. We are so thankful for how healthy and happy they both are. They have come a long ways from Cael being 3lbs 10oz and Cason being 4lbs 5oz. Both of them needing some help breathing and eating for the first 6 weeks of their lives. The long holiday season at the Ronald McDonald house. They treated us so great. Then bringing Cason home even though he would stop breathing on us when he would eat. I am so glad the doctors trusted him in our care. The long first few months of their lives. (SIGH) You wouldn't know we had a rough start at all looking at them now. The joy and the noise they bring into our home is great.
We had a great family party. All the family that was close enough were able to attend, minus the third amigo. Our home was full. Cason chose a spiderman cake and Cael a motorcycle cake. They twins made out with great presents. We loved it. Thank you ever one that attended. Here's to another great year to come.

Our Littlest Turkeys



Cason and Cael made their own Thurkey day shirts this year in preschool. I just love them and had to show them to all that might have missed them. Aren't they cute. And yes I had my Christmas stuff up a day early.







The lovely Sara and her tongue


We got to watch Sara and Cooper the other day while Jodie ran to walmart. I was impressed to take some pictures of our little Sara. She has really taken a liking to her tongue. Anyways I just wanted to share with you how cute and funny it was. She sat there like this for about 30 minutes or more. Oh the small pleasures it life.






Cason and Cael Attend Their First Party

Cason
Cael

Cael and Cason really got into this party. It was right up their alley. With a spiderman theme they had a blast. They went to Aim Gymnastics and played around for a couple of hours. I was even told the next week when I ran into their friend Micheal's mom that they were the best kids there. Can you believe it? I know I couldn't either but I thanked her any ways and told her I was glad. I am sure there will be plenty more partys to come. They are turning 5 right around the corner. They have already been inviting people. Problem is that we just wanted to have a family party. Now we shall see.

Grandpa Holman's Great Hair Cuts

Grandpa Holman came over last night and gave the boys haircuts. The twins have never had anyone else give them a haircut. They love it. How great is it to have a grandpa so handy with the clippers! Plus he does it for the hugs. Thanks Grandpa we LOVE YA. (PS Austin is smiling. He doesn't do that much in pictures. What a nice smile.)
Cason's turn


Cael's turn

Austin's turn. By the way this was my Christmas present. I would have to say it is one of the best ones I could of asked for. But he also said he did it for basketball. Next hair cut for Austin? Maybe my birthday.

I just have to say that I am so EXCITED to go to Twilight friday night with family and friends. I also really hope that the movie is good. I have been trying to tell myself not to expect much. Well any ways we have our tickets (Thanks to Jennie and Jackie) and ready to go. Which having the tickets has made me look forward to it even more. I just have to talk Brent into leaving wrestling practice early. We will see. He can always show up late. To my family and friends going with us, see you at the movies. ;)

Dippin' in Chocolate

Sorry. Still not sure what I am doing. So I am posting my pictures seperate from my blog.
Tonight for part of our family home evening we decided to use our chocolate factory (that the Weyands gave us) for our treats. It was a lot of fun. For all that have the love for chocolate we say give this one a try. It was quick and the kids loved it.

Happy Halloween


Just thought I would post a picture of the kids on Halloween. Austin didn't really get into it this year but the other ones loved it. We had the church trunk or treat the Wednesday before Halloween. So we were able to go trick or treating this year. Very funny. We will have to sit the kids down next year and let them know what they can tell other people and what they can't tell other people before we go out.

Trying this again!


OK I am giving this another try with the help of Jodie.
