The Story of Jesus!

Summer and Dalton were in a play at our church. It was called the story of Jesus. They practiced every Tuesday starting in September. They did really well. The play turned out great and the kids were sooo cute. A big Thanks to Pastor Dan for putting this all together.

O' Christmas Tree O' Christmas Tree

I took some branches from the tree and made a little swag to put our stockings under. (Unfortuantely we don't have a fire place.)

This is the tree with a story. LOL!

Christmas Tree Cutting!!!

Whoo Hoo we found a tree.

I took this picture because soon as we got out of the truck Dalton said this is the one he wanted to cut down for our house. LOL!!! If I had to guess this tree was probably like 40 feet tall.

We decided this year to go up North and cut down a tree. We needed a big one because we have high ceilings. (Thought this would be the cheaper way to do it considering the tags were only $15 and not to mention a good family adventure) We were having a blast hiking thru the forest looking for a perfect tree and also stopping for a couple family photos. After hiking a while we decided to drive further in the woods to see if we could find bigger and better ones. As we are driving we come to a point in the road where a big tree had fallen. Off to the side was basically a quad trail going around the tree. Jake being the adventurist he is says "I can make it". I chickened out and the kids and I got out and stood on the road to watch. Make a long story short Jake got the truck stuck in the snow and almost rolled it. It was on 3 wheels and teetering back and forth. We were stuck and stuck good. We had no service on the cell phones and no one near by. Jake walked down aways to see if we could find help. Of course there wasn't. We ended up getting out after 3 hours of loading the back of the truck with wood to try to balance it and a lot of prayers. On the way home he also got a speeding ticket. So the tree ended up costing us alot more in the end. But hey this is one trip we will never forget. Ahh the memories!!

Mitchel Musso Concert and Tree Lighting

Look how beautiful Summer is...

Summer and Dalton tuffing it out in the thousands of people screaming for MM!!!

OMG!! It's Mitchel Musso (MM)

Dalton pouting because I took him off my shoulders.

Summer getting MM autograph she also got the drummers. Jake tried to get a pic with him in it signing but you should have seen this crowd of girls. It was crazy!!! They were screaming his name and pushing there way up to get to him.

Santa was dancing and enjoying the concert as well. He flipped the switch for the tree lighting. The tree is the biggest in AZ. (52 feet and it is real)

Dalton's Field Trip

We went on a Field Trip to the American Heritage Festival. It was great they reenacted all the periods of history. Very educating and interesting.
