Happy Birthday Mr. Jackson

Jackson turns 6 tomorrow but we had his party today. He chose a Harry Potter theme. The pictures are really out of order but right now I don't really care enough to fix them. You will have to deal. Hayden is actually posing for a picture and smiling. That never happens.
Some of Jackson's cute friends eating cake and making their crafts.




















HAPPY BIRTHDAY ACTION JACKSON!!!





The kids are using their magic wands to make a feather float.








Jackson wanted a sorting hat cake. I think that it turned out pretty good. It looks really freaky on all the pictures. I think it looked better in real life. Jackson loved it. That is all that matters.....right?

Just thought I would brag.....

I made this cute (if I do say so myself) Valentines wreath from coffee filters. It makes me happy every time I walk past it. Now I just need to find a way to make my nasty door look nicer.

December

Here is the whole month of December in one post. It was such a crazy month and I had no time for anything extra like blogging! Chris has decided that he is going to get his MPA. Our lease for our townhouse was up the end of December. After much thought, prayer, and consideration, we decided that we needed to move back to student housing at the U. We were able to get an apartment in our old court. Everything worked out so well we really knew it was meant to be. Santa visited the boys a little early. This was taken the first week of December. He woke them up while they were asleep. They thought it was pretty cool.

We went to The Christmas Shoppe so the boys could pock out their ornaments for this year. The elves were pretty cute.






The gingerbread train that the boys made.



We picked a perfect night to go to Temple Square. It was so warm. I think by the end of the night everyone had taken off their hats and gloves. We went with the Prax family. My boys can't get enough of them.








I love Blake's hat hair in this picture.


My cute Hayden baby. Too bad he is becoming more of a boy than baby.







We were able to score some free tickets to Candlelight Christmas at
This is the Place. Here are the kids on the train. We are with the Prax family again. Maybe Chris and I can't get enough of them either! :)

Emma in between the boys. They both love her so much. They are always discussing who likes her the most. I hope this doesn't cause problems when they are older. :)






The boys had fun petting the animals.




Jackson did a great job at his Christmas assembly. It is really hard to see him but he is in the front row between the two girls.


Christmas Eve with the Stoker family.































Christmas morning. Hayden would not turn around. He was too happy about his kitchen.



































Oh how Hayden loves Toy story.
