Tis the Season!

Jorgensen tradition, the present dress! On our mantle we have stocking holder frames that sport all of the girls in this little dress. It began with Kelsie and has finished with Esme. Poor Jonas didn't get to partake, he sports a green vest!
Thanks mom and dad for the striped sweater.

You can't tell what she is holding, but the next time you see her, her smile will be brighter!

The little bee book and sleeper jammies!


Transformer Heaven!

Santa really knew what he was doing when he brought Maremaid this pink, feathery phone!

Maremaid loved all the headbands, Nana. We can't seem to get her to wear them the right way though!

Another hit from Nana!


This year Hannah asked Santa to somehow pierce her ears. We laughed and said if we hear her screaming in the middle of the night, we will know that Santa is down poking a needle through her ears. She woke Christmas morning to a jewelry stand with a pair of earings and a gift card to Claire's. The day after Cristmas we ran down to the mall and no tears later, she has colored flowers in her ears.

Excitement?

My brother J.B. came down from Idaho this year to spend Christmas with us. We had such a great time with him. He was so helpful with the snow removal, babysitting, and mechanics of Christmas Eve. I loved our late night talks and battles of Epic Duel.

On Chrismas Eve, J and I decided to take the kids down to the school and do some sledding. This is Maremaid at the beginning of the excursion.

Kels and Buddy at the bottom of the hill!


The whole crew at the top of the hill!


Angel face was going so fast that all you can really see is a blur!


J trying to slow down with his hands. There were alot of kids on the hill this day, so you had to be very careful!

If you know our family very well at all, you will know that we have three honorary members. Two of which are the Decker girls. This is the youngest with her hat tails flying out behind, or maybe in front of her!

Here is the frozen Maremaid who had to be pulled to the warm van to watch a little Cinderella and wait for the other sledders.

Snow at St. George!

We were in St. George for a December wedding and it was so beautiful with all the snow!

Essie was not wanting pictures at all!

Maren at the Lodge!

Kels caught the bridal bouquet, hopefully marriage can wait a few years.




These were beautiful family pictures, minus Josh and me. This one has Snow Canyon in the background.



Buddy and Gabe!

It's all about Essie!

It seems all of the photos I have been taking lately have been of Esme, so I will try to do better with the rest! These two had alot of fun until Leah became a leaner and was squishing Esme against the back of the car.
As you can see there aren't many ornaments at the bottom of our tree.

Chewing on one of Dennis' new socket wrenches!

"No crib for a bed!"


This is the storm we will travel in to get to Miranda's wedding! Hopefully it will have stopped before we leave.

Thanksgiving in C.D.!

We got off to a good wrestling start.

Randa looks like she is getting the most of them.

Some sort of snuggy happening here! What's with those Fauver girls?


Maren loved playing in this little cubby under the desk!



Beautiful Banner and S.



Look forward to seeing the twisty wave in the next blog! Essie is becoming quite famous for it!




Dennis taking Maremaid on a ferris wheel basket ride!

This basket was a favorite with my kids!


Alan and S! What is it with these two girlies and their eyes!

What a great time to be had among cousins!


Alan helping S again!
Not many pictures of Jonas, he was to busy shooting skeet! Kelsie and Hannah were to busy hanging with Tenny, Zack, and Banner. I don't think I saw them until our trip home!

Oh wait, here is Hannah in the basket!
