Photos on a Random day

Ok, so I have a little time, so I thought I would upload some picture.  Enjoy!  Most of these are Christmas preparation pictures.  We decided to teach the boys to make Christmas candy instead of doing all the work.  They did a great job!!

Hyrum loves the star!

Simon loves the box, of course!

He wasn't the only one.  The box is the best!

I love that I don't have to decorate the tree at all.  Older kids are great!

This was just precious!

All done!  What cute boys!

Wresting on the floor is the best! 

The boys love music just like their dad!

The island is a great place to play.  And, yes, Simon love my head bands! 

We took a trip into Chicago to the Kriskindle market.  It was a great trip!  Especially watching movies on the drive.  ;)

We didn't have any bad sleep issues at the hotel.  Phew!  

Michael at the market.

Simon didn't love the market until he got food.

Hyrum is super cute when he sleeps!

Even Hyrum got to help make turtles.  Yummy!

He was very proud of his help.

And everyone likes a taste! 

Joshua was excited to make caramels on his own.  He couldn't believe I let him do it.  I guess I need to work on my control issues.

Michael had fun making toffee!  Yum! 

And amidst all our fun Joshua had a minor toenail surgery to help him not have ingrown toenails anymore.  Gross, but hopefully successful!

And since he doesn't like walking on his feet now he has been having fun with Knex.  Lots and lots of Knex.  

So much fun around here and now we are ready for Christmas.  Yay!  Merry Christmas everyone!
