December activities.

Hangin out with my Dani.

Zack after he lost another tooth

 He actually pulled it out after playing with Grandpa Brad and accidentally punching himself in the mouth. 

Triston doesn't enjoy losing his teeth. I waited months for him to try to pull this tooth out. He has yet to pull out any of his own teeth. Between the dentist, grandma, and his mom he had never had to. I was going to make him do this one, but he wouldn't and his new tooth was almost all the way in. We talked and talked and talked and gave him options one night. All he did was SCREAM for over an hour. We didn't even need to touch him. People would have thought we were abusing him if they heard. UHG!! and everyone says girls are the drama!! We finally had to lay him down and I barely tugged it at all and it came out. He didn't even notice.

Playing with Dani and some fun light.  

 Triston was baptized on December 1st. We gave him a new set of Scriptures with his name on them. He sat down to read from them first thing :)

 His dad baptized him. Lucky kid. He got the Bishop. It was a great day. Chris even got me to say a few rushed words ;)

His grandparents gave him a scripture case.  

  One Sunday Nick and I took all the kids down to see the great grandparents in Gunnison. Our spouses were out of town. It was a lot of fun. 

 Hangin out making a mess at the Rosenvall's

 Dani and Sophie were "making food" for Grandpa. 

For the Ward Christmas Party this year, Triston got to play Joseph. The girl that played Mary was  a bit taller than him. It was so cute. He was so embarrassed. 

They even let Danika dress up as a shepherd even though she wasn't in Primary yet. She loved it.  

Zack was also a sheperd with a little lamb.  

Yep we got another "I DON'T LIKE SANTA" Picture.  

 One day for Danika's dance class I sat in on the class. She is such a silly. 

 For the school Christmas program Zack got to be Rudolph. He was so excited. He did a great job. 

Triston was also Joseph for the school program. Zack was a wiseman.  

 This was Danika's first year in Dance. We got to go watch her Dance recital in December. She was all excited till I took her backstage to join her class then she freaked. I didn't think she would calm down. I finally just had to leave her with her teacher and hope for the best. I ran all the way back to the doors and they shut them. I was worried I wouldn't get in before she got up to dance. It was super frustrating to stand there and wait. Finally they opened the door and I raced back to my seat just as her class was coming out on stage. You would have never known five minutes before she had been crying. She loved being in the spotlight. 

And the end for the finale they brought each class out one at a time. After they brought Danika's class out everyone started dancing and cheering. Dani just stood there with her back to the audience watching everyone like they were crazy. So funny  

The kids making their Gingerbread Train.
