Snow days and Winter Concert

These two are beyond adorable.  I won't say I can't get enough of them, because by bedtime I'm ready for a break, but they are stinking cute.



 She wasn't happy with the layers.  She couldn't move very well.
 Donovan and his devious little grin.  I'm pretty sure you can guess what he did with his snowball.
 She was okay with the layers once she got her first taste of snow.  It was her first snow experience.  I wish she would have sat still, but she insisted on crawling and getting stuck...then getting upset.



 She is such a monkey.  The little cutie loves to climb, and this is her favorite place to do it.
 I could post multiple pictures from different days with her in the same position.
 Donovan gets a little concerned sometimes and worries about his sister falling and getting hurt, and that aggravates Chamae.
 Lazy afternoon.
 Corbin likes this spot too, but he can't quite climb on the chairs.

 The night we put up our tree, I made some sugar cookies to decorate.  I realized that I don't have Christmas cookie cutters, so I was lazy...er, creative and made different sized balls to make snowmen.  Donovan loved the idea.

 Pretty little princess in her Christmas outfit. 

 Snow fun at the Hiatt's hill.






 The little boys really wanted to copy Bradley, until they got up there and realized it wasn't a very good idea.
She also likes to open, empty, and climb in cupboards...don't mind our overflowing trash.

 Ward Christmas party.  Hannah is in town for a while after finishing finals before she heads back to Utah.


 I made gingerbread for the first time and we had the Hiatt's over to make houses.  It was fun and the little boys had a lot of fun loading their houses with candy...and so did Brad.




 I think Brad's was the most fun and full of candy.


She's just pretty.
Sometimes when she climbs on the table, she gets stuck.

Sometimes they are really sweet to each other.

Little climber. 
Donovan's first school concert.  He knew all the words to 1 out of 3 songs...


Chamae enjoyed watching her brother:)  I took some videos too, but our video files from our camera are too big and it won't let me upload them:(

Adorable. Kate was a little climber too—still is I guess. I worry about her falling and getting hurt, but then I figure that if she gets hurt once then maybe she'll stop. I'm still waiting for that to happen. Chamae's little pony tails are so so cute. And I love her Christmas outfit. Our ward Christmas party was last night and it was super lame. Dinner and then complete pandemonium while the the parents worked on a service project and the kids ran crazy. Sweet snowfort, and I love your head wrap!

What a couple of cuties. She looks more like Donovan all the time. Then again, looking at his younger pictures she's always looked a lot like him...

So many fun pictures. I think it is so cute kids all bundled up in their big puffy snow suits! Chamae's sad face in hers sure cracked me up. Looks like you guys have been making some fun holiday yummies

I love the snow fun! I'm so happy the kids could pull out the winter duds and enjoy the snowy day with cousins and parents! I'm surprised Donovan didn't try to "snowboard" like his dad. I'm so impressed with the gingerbread making and of course their creations. Miss you guys!

Btw, Chamae looks so much like her daddy in those "toothy grins" I agree she looks a good mix like Donovan most of the time but her hair is much the same color and that grin looks like her daddy.
