December 2014

We took our Neighbor-Chris to the Kirtland church sites to see the nativity and a choir sing Christmas songs! It was a fun night! We are really going to miss Chris! She has been a wonderful neighbor, friend, and like a grandma! Caden and I usually go and see her at least 2-3 times a week! She loves watching Caden play! Caden loves her too! He gets so excited when I say we are going to Chris's. He will run up to her door and start knocking! haha He also will give her a hug and say bye when it is time to go! It was so hard to tell her that we are leaving in just a couple of weeks! :(

                                               

So we decided to have our own little Christmas before going to Colorado and then straight to Utah. We had a wonderful Christmas eve meal with Melinda and Eric Malmgren and then enjoyed some old classic Christmas movies that Caden would enjoy, like "Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer". Christmas Day we had a relaxing morning opening presents and had waffles with our new waffle maker! We then went to a Avery Dennison Christmas party for kids. That was a lot of fun! Santa was there(Caden did not like that), We got to see a real live reindeer, had free lunch(pizza, chips, and cookie), and got a free gift from Santa! That made our Christmas day really feel like Christmas! 

This is Caden walking in seeing the christmas presents for the first time on "our" Christmas morning. 

He loves all of his Christmas presents!! Lucky Boy got way more than Chris and I combined! haha

Avery Dennison Kids Christmas party.

I just love my Cute boys! 

Did not like that one bit!! haha

But at least we got a 10$ walmart gift card out of it!!! 

Reading his new books he got for Christmas! 

Chris surprised me by getting me a tripod stand and a clicker for my Camera! Love him!! 

This is the picture we got with the real live Reindeer!! So Cool! Merry Christmas!! 

 A couple days later we were on our way to Colorado to spend the Holidays with Chris's WHOLE family!! It has been a long time since all of the siblings and their families have all been together under one roof!!

We were so blessed that Caden slept on the plane! We left at 5:40 am!! Yuck! But it was nice getting there around 9 am. Caden was a champ!! 

Just playing at Grandpa and Grandma Huntington!

I LOVE all of Caden's facial expressions!! 

He had so much fun playing with cousins and Grandpa!! 

Sledding TIME!!! 

They loved it until....

....This happened!! Turned too sharp! 

Caden did not like snow on his hands. He would say "EW ew ew" until we wiped it off for him. 

Now they weren't so sure they liked it anymore. haha

They made a fun little sledding hill

While we were in Colorado we went Rock Climbing..."We" as in Caden and Chris and the rest of the family that could and wanted to. I wish I could have...you miss out on a lot of fun things when pregnant! 

Caden did AWESOME!!!! He loved it too! 

Go Chris!! 

After we stayed at Chris's parents for a while we went to a YMCA in the mountains and stayed in a cabin. Most of the info on this is in the year book 2015. But here are a few pictures that didn't get include.
