Chris's 33rd Birthday Party


This year I planned a dinner party for Chris's 33rd birthday. He was on shift all weekend so I was able to decorate and plan while he was working. Friends and family came all the way from Big Timber and Livingston to celebrate with us. It was a huge success. I made chicken enchalada's that turned out fabulous! Everyone had a great time. Happy birthday baby.

Christmas Day 2011


Looking fab on Christmas morn - ha!

The ONLY  thing he really wanted, Santa brought! He must of been a good boy!

...and of course this kid wants to be just like his dad. Go cowboys.

Fun cocoa mugs for the boys!

My gorgeous ring Xander bought me.
 Dad took him to several jewelry stores to find just the right one. 
Xander knew my favorite color was blue so it HAD to be blue. 
I love it!!

It is our tradition to always have hot wings on Christmas day. This year we grilled them on the BBQ. They we sooo good. We served them with lots of snacks and salad. We spent the day opening gifts, playing games, and eating food all day.


Christmas Eve 2011

This year we spent Christmas Eve at both of my parents house. We went to my moms first then headed over to dads. This enabled us to spend Christmas day at home and stay in our pj's all day. We were so blessed with family, gifts, food and laughter. This is why I love Christmas so much.





This is probably my favorite picture. The cousins using grandpa's computer to find out where santa is via santa tracker. I believe he was in Brazil when this picture was taken. The kids thought they at least had 6 more hours before bed when santa would arrive. 


Wine Making

This year Chris and I decided that since myself and all of the ladies in our entire family are wine lovers we would make our own wine and give it as gifts for Christmas. We had so much fun making it. It was a month long process. Plus, decorating the wine bottles themselves.


After wine making and tasting I decided not to only decorate the wine bottles, but also the wine glasses I thought needed to go with it. They turned out awesome. All 5 ladies, my mom, stepmom, sisters, and Lisa received a package.

Christmas Star


Every year Xander gets to put the star on the christmas tree. Not looking forward to the day that he doesn't have to sit on dads shoulders anymore to do it. But until then, I will treasure these moments.
