I also heart my in-law's tree. Ron actually goes out and finds a tree and cuts it down.

12.30.11

Paige made us shirts!! (Gramma Tracy may have helped get them actually made). What an awesome idea!!

12.29.11

On the way to Dauphin, Bella is alert and ready to get there!!!

12.28.11

Home for a day of laundry before heading back out on the road, Dauphin bound!

12.27.11

So glad that we were able to get a visit in with the Kraushaar's. Liberty is such a little cutie! You'd never know that she really wasn't feeling that well!

12.26.11

I also heart my mom's tree!

12.25.11

A quick play with new toys before we hit the road to MJ.

12.24.11

Our Christmas Eve traditions...Gingerbread house making, and getting new pajamas to wear to bed!!

12.23.11

I heart our Christmas Tree!

12.21.11

And this is what our Kitchen looks like today!

12.20.11

Well would ya look at that? There's already a present under my tree!! HAHAHA!

12.19.11

YAY!! Finally got the tree put up! Kitchen reno's really put a damper on my Christmas decorating! Couldn't put anything up until we were finished sanding..but it got done!

12.18.11

Went out on this chilly day for some pictures with Dustin & Shylee and their busy boys!

12.16.11

Christmas Party time!! It was a lot of fun!

12.11.11

Photo is way too dark, but anyways, got to spend a lovely couple days with my brother,Lance and sisterinlaw, Lanah. They are always such great company! Had a total blast with them! Can't wait to see you guys again!

12.6.11

These two are my pride and joy. Even though they bug each other, and get angry with each other,..they love each other so much. They make me so proud!

12.5.11

I don't know why I was so absent-minded..perhaps the kitchen reno's, but I forgot to order school photo's, so the kids and I sat down quickly and snapped a few. Of course, Paige was a lot more willing than her brother!

12.4.11

All my sitting in the blind, being bored out of my tree, not seeing a dang thing...well it PAID OFF..In waltz's a BUCK!! First deer I see, and it's a big ol' buck! And it came STRAIGHT towards me!!! I probably could have hit it with my boot!
It took me forever to get lined up and ready to shoot, my nerves were just a GOING! And I shot !!! It didn't even run, for me to have to search for it! DOWN IT WENT!

A nice 4 X 5 whitetail buck!!! It's antlers are SO unique, I love them!

12.3.11

Renovations have hit the mudding and sanding stage..ARGH! And of course, this was MY job. By this stage, we have knocked out a wall and moved a doorway (sorry no pics of that until later!!!)

12.2.11

Sitting in the blind hunting was EXTREMELY boring, I didn't see ONE single deer ANY night..so why not whip out the good ol' Iphone and have a little photoshoot with myself!
