Phew! What we've been up to...

Well I have exceeded my photo limit on blogger, shocking, so here are just a few of the pics of what we have been up to lately! Christmas Eve Ger and the kiddos headed up to Four Peaks with the Stums and Marcus and JJ for some Ranger Riding and hiking. They had a GREAT time and the day was gorgeous!
Nothing like playing in the dirt...
Or playing with sticks! Hours of fun!
Christmas Eve we have a tradition of opening cousin gifts and grandparents gifts. Mia was SOOO excited about her Webkinz Horse and PJ pants from cousin Evie. She said, "THIS IS JUST WHAT I WANTED!!!"
Oh gosh... the other photos didn't download but Colby was in heaven with his Superman PJ's, complete with the cape, from Lola and Sydney was so excited for a new shirt and notebook and Target gift card from Brady.

My mom canned the kiddos Christmas gifts this year. Literally. They thought that was so cool! What a fun idea! They couldn't wait to see what was inside... and that pic didn't upload either. BAH! so sad...
The sugar plum tree got done after Christmas this year... This was a tradition growing up in Ger's family!

Luckily the kiddos weren't even tempted to eat the treats since it was after xmas and they had had their fill. phew.
LOVING the weather at this time of year- lots of bike riding, jumping on the tramp, playing in the sand box, going to the park, playing baseball outside with Dad, etc!
Movie nights! they all got new soft blankies to match their bedding and LOVE snuggling up in them.
YMCA! The girlies are MONKEYS. They did all 5 courses of the rock wall and LOVED it. It was very challenging but so fun...
Their little arms and legs are pretty buff from gymnastics!
Did I say how fun it was!?! Mia was THRILLED when she did the hardest side.
And the day rounded out with a family game of basketball after lots of practicing... Wow. Mia is our little competitive fireball. She is fiesty and wanted that ball! She got so frustrated if she didn't have it and between her competitiveness and Colby's, the game was humerous, fun and short lived. ha ha! But this pic of Ger teaching Colby to shoot is priceless!
Well I will have to figure out my photo limit quota problem and get back to you with more xmas pics! Hope you are all healthy and well! We feel extremely blessed to have our health and be able to spend time as a family this holiday season.
