what my kids have been up to....

While they are supposed to be sleeping?.......

Maryland...

I get to see these little bugs tomorrow and I can't even wait! I"m going to Maryland tomorrow with my mom to see my sister Jill who I never get to see!
I'm really going to miss these little ones though! My mother-in-law is coming to watch them while I"m gone and I couldn't be more grateful!! They love when their Grandma's come to visit!!
p.s. I love ebay! I just got this bathing suit! (don't worry Rob, I returned the one from Target) :) Are you wondering why I have bathing suits on my mind? Maybe becuase it's like 80 degrees here in California, which is another reason I'm excited to go back East! I love VISITING the snow!!

Xmas 2009....

For Christmas we traveled to St. George and we had such a great time! We had an itinerary with lots of fun things planned! All of the sister-in-laws got sewing machines then had a 2 hour lesson on how to use them! We had a lot of fun hanging out and playing games and eating A TON of good food!! The pictures explain almost everything we did.....

Here's Taylor with her letter that she wrote to Santa on Christmas Eve, it says: "Dear Santa, Here is Cookies, I'm sorry our house is hot. Bye, by: Taylor" What?
Grace and Olivia decided to get a permanent marker and color on themselves!! (I was incredibly mad that night!) what are kids thinking?!?!
We had a karaoke competition and Rob was Hannah Montana! It was pretty ugly!

We recreated the nativity scene with the kids!

We had a girls vs. boys gingerbread house competition and we had some friends come over and judge it, and the girls won!!

The inside of our house!

Santa Claus was able to visit the Judd house while we were there, the kids were soo excited! he gave each of them christmas pajamas

We went to Tuachan to see christmas lights and to watch a live nativity

Rob and I went to Target to get a xmas tree after Christmas and instead I got a sweet deal on a bathing suit there! :)
Michelle with (almost) all of the grandkids!
We had such a FUN christmas and I'm so sad it's over! Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Judd!!

If you want to see an argument at the Judd house...

come to our house while we are decorating for Christmas!

 

I had Rob get the Christmas decorations out before Thanksgiving so that we wouldn't come home to Thanksgiving decorations and I think he wanted kill me! although I have to say this year he was a pretty good sport! Soon he'll be the one begging to get the Christmas decorations out...okay not really!!

It's past 10 and this is what my kids are up doing in their room! Bedtime is REALLY annoying at our house!!

Trunk or Treat...

Our ward had a trunk or treat and the girls were sooooooooooo excited to dress up as Mulan. My mother-in-law made cute little wigs for them that I thought for sure they wouldn't keep on, but they did all night and asked if they could wear them to bed! It was a really fun night but we have all had WAY TOO MUCH candy and it's not even Halloween yet, yikes!

Pumpkin Patch

We went to the pumpkin patch last night and the girls were soooooo excited about it! I made the mistake of telling them that we were going in the morning, so they asked me ALL day about it! It was a lot of fun , I just don't know if our bank account has enough money in it to go again! The rides are WAY too overpriced! It was worth it though, my kids had a blast!
