Merry Christmas with Mom and Dad


Grandma and Grandpa came to visit us last week.  They arrived Christmas night and the kids went straight to bed when we got home....they then filled under the christmas tree again, and when the kids woke up it was Christmas all over again.  The funny thing was we (the adults) were all downstairs when they came down and they BOTH walked right past the tree (and presents).  We had to show them, but they were super excited!!  

Garrett and Grandpa playing "real" angry birds!!

After we opened gifts and ate breakfast we got all of our warm gear together and headed for Mt. Hood.  We had a blast!!  It was a perfect day (the only good day they were here).

  

A coworker of mine told me to keep walking about 1/4 of a mile at the sno park.  We did and this is how the kids RODE!! 

I love Josh's face in this pic!!!  "Are you kidding me, do you know how far that is???"


Once we got to the hill....it was HUGE!!  We didn't get how to steer until after a few times!!

We were trying to steer with our feet which made for a face full of snow!!!

Poor Haylee....she was the first to go!!!  She was such a big girl though...although she decided to stick to this.....
Nice and Slow!!

CRASH!!!





Josh talked Haylee into going again...she learned from the first time to cover her face!!  She loved it!!!


Snowball fight!!




What a great day.  We ended it with a warm drink and treat at our usual place on the way home!!!

We also took a trip to see little Ms. Baby Avery (Ivan and Emily Godwin's baby).  
She has grown so much since the last time we saw her!!  What a doll.  Haylee was LOVED her!!!  I asked Garrett if he wanted to hold her and his was response was, "I want to hold him" pointing at the hamster!!  Such a boy!!!

We had a great time with you Grandma and Grandpa!!  Can't wait until the next time!!!
