Putting up the tree and making ginger bread houses

Well we put the tree up two weeks ago and made ginger bread houses last week...but I just now had time to blog about it. I guess I have to treasure these times with my kids because this is the first year Preston has not been interested in any of our Christmas traditions. He did seem to care that he wasn't going to be in any pictures and quickly came up to be in one or two.

Chloe Visits Santa

Chloe was so excited to visit Santa. She couldn't hold still the entire time in line. And then when we turned the corner and she saw that he was really there she became really shy and didn't know what to do. We managed to get a picture and she was able to ask him for what she wanted.

Preston's Christmas Program

Preston had his first Chirstmas program at middle school. I wasn't able to see him very well but I was able to get some good pictures afterward as well as some video.

Thanksgiving 2009

Well another Thanksgiving has come and gone. We were missing about half the family and the girls and I made way too many pies but had lots of fun making them. Grandma Christensen was able to join us this year. This may be her last Thanksgiving so we were glad she was able to come. She still has her sense of humor in her old years. The next morning my sisters, our mom, and I made our way out to black Friday craziness at 5 am. Then we all went to breakfast like we do every year. I am finally getting into the mood of Christmas.

Gymnastics Festival 2009

This was the first year that Chloe was able to participate in the gymnastics festival with her big sister Hannah. Hannah is doing so well as she prepares for competition. Chloe is catching up quickly to her very talented big sister. I have been giving private yoga lessons to the owner of Bailie's Gymnastics and her cute daughters. Her are some pictures and a video of each of them.
