Christmas!

Let it snow, let it snow!

Or should i say let it rain i guess this will be the closes to snow we get here in Arizona. :) I'm definitely not complaining i love the rain. well Christmas is almost here! Yea I'm so excited for this year, because it's Brighton's first, and he just can't stay away from the tree and presents. Also this year Jaiden old enough to understand a little more about Christmas. Like last night for FHE. We did the manger, Brandon read out of Luke about the birth of Christ, and then we would place each figure in the manger. (It was so cute) I gave Jaiden Baby Jesus, the cow and Joseph, and she would lovingly cradle the baby Jesus and say baby Jesus. We also wanted to go to the temple to look at the Christmas lights, but that kind of got rained out. :) Well Saturday, we finally got our lights up on our house, plugged then in and..... nothing? I guess we blew a fuse?! So Brandon has been looking for a fuse to replace it but every were we go they don't have the right size. :( So our house has lights but at the time the don't work. lol Well a little more on this years holiday, it's a little different. For one we sent thanksgiving with my parents down here, in there new home in Queen Creek it's really nice, as well we're going to have Christmas there too. which works for us since Brandon has to work day after Christmas, and we don't go up tell Christmas day. we're all excited to try something different. well moving on to new years. I know kinda jumping the gun huh! But I'm just so excited for January, well first for new years where going to Vegas! I haven't been there since my 21st birthday.Brandon and I are meeting one of Brandon's missionary buddy and his wife there and going to party hardy?! (down side i have to leave my kids :( but they well be carefully watched over by my mom and dad. got to love grandparents.) Well that's that for our holidays. We just wanted to wish every one a very very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Jaiden's Big Boo Boo!

Crashed and Burned!

Oh my gosh this was like the scariest thing ever. It happen on thanksgiving, we ( i mean my whole family) were at my parents new place in queen creek. Just finished cleaning up and i was out side with Brandon, and Dusti (my sister for those who don't know her) :) took Jaiden and Ryker my nephew on ride on a four wheeler a little 90. When all of a sudden i heard this faint cry, at first i thought it was a laugh. well i walk to the road to make sure, when i see Ryker and Dusti holding Jaiden walking back to the house and heard her crying and saying mommy mommy, (break your heart cry). well when i reached them Jaiden was all scraped up, and somewhat bloody, mainly road rash. Well i guess what happen was Dusti was letting Ryker drive, but they weren't going that fast maybe five miles or so, when Ryker turned really really sharp and all three fell off. Well Ryker got a little goose egg on his head and Dusti got a huge bruise on her hip and her elbow my mom had to dig out some gravel, but i believe Jaiden got the worst of it.My poor sister felt really bad ya I'll a mitt that i want to yell at her, but it was just an accident. Well that pretty much the story. but we took these pictures the day after and her eye was swollen shut. Now she all better a little pink and missing half her eye brow, but i pretty sure that will grow back. Thank goodness for vitamin E!
