Baddley Christmas Party

Our proud Pop and his cup of dirt.

We played a white elephant game and Steve thought it would be funny to bring a cup of dirt for his gift. When Dad found out that there was $10 of dimes in it, he wasn't about to give it up.

Aaron posing for the camera in his new scarf.

Derek cried real tears of joy when he opened his "Cars" gift.

What a cute kid.

Ryan, Steph, and Derek

Mariah is IN LOVE with kitties. They are her absolute favorite thing ever.

" We don't get it. This is way too complicated." Derek had to wait...I dunno...probably and hour before his gift was finally assembled by his uncles, the masterminds.

Aunt Stephanie and Shannon

Stephanie and her cute (nearly 9 months) belly.

Shannon

Leigh, Nicolle, Carrie, Me, Jill, and Brooke. This picture would have been perfect if Jodi was in it! She got to the restaurant too late! Still cute though. I can't believe we have all been friends for over 10 years! Love it!

Temple Square

We were at Temple Square in Salt Lake City and decided to take a break from our cold walk and go into the visitor's center. There is a spiral path that leads up to this large white statue of Christ. We told Mariah there was a suprise at the top of the path. Steve, Grammy, Shannon and I walked up behind Mariah as she quickly ran to see what the suprise was. When we reached the top, this photo is what we found. It was so sweet and special. Mariah stood there for a few minutes just staring up at Jesus. It is amazing how even our little ones can feel our Savior's love.

Let's see, how long did it take me to bundle my kids to go outside for a walk?

Mariah loves baby Jesus.

Grammy helps Mariah eat snow. She quickly becomes addicted.

Mariah talking to Mommy..."I going to marry Daddy in the temple when I big. Daddy be my husband...and your husband...both of us."

She is just so dang cute!

I Am A Tool Man

Dad and Mom Baddley came to visit us in Rocklin. Steve and his Dad built a shed for our back yard. They did it in mostly rain and Steve learned a lesson or two about using every last scrap of wood from his Dad. His Dad also knows how much everything costs...before going to Home Depot. Amazing man. Oh yeah, and they got to use some crazy powerful nail gun that they were stoked to shoot in the wood. Those boys LOVE projects! Thanks Dad for your help!
