Catching Up! Rivers Birthday, New Years Eve, Snow!

Ok, I'm catching up here! We have had a busy holiday season! First, Canyons birthday on Nov 11, then Thanksgiving, then Christmas (4 snowy weather hour trip both ways), 5 days later, on Dec 30 it was Rivers birthday, next day New Years Eve, and New Years Day then! Woo hoo!
So here is a bunch of pictures to catch up!

Here is Canyon re-building his space station...

Here are the boy's, eating ice cream, out of the same box, together......after I had asked them if they could wait a bit longer for ice cream, cause I couldn't quite get it for them yet......well, our boy's just do it themselves!! They got up to the freezer, go it, and shared! Good for them! Teamwork. By the way, this was Rivers birthday morning! I should mention it was in the morning!

We made up tissue paper masks, capes, and had some fun!

Canyon, with his paper costume, doing a famouse Canyon Pose! Note: He is always wearing this costume!

River mixed the batter, and helped me make his birthday cake through the whole process! He was very happy and excited to make his birthday cake....he just lit up the whole time!

Excuse the messy house, maid's off duty! There is playing to be done!

River....licking the knife....

Daddy cutting the birthday cake, I have the candle pictures, but I took video of River blowing out the candles!

Mmmmm....France ice cream (That's what Canyon was calling French Vanilla) and carrot cake! River made it clear he wanted a carrot cake!

New Years Eve!!! Papa and Gramma came over with x-mas gifts from them and Gramma Margaret and Grampa Merle.....what a nice surprise for the boy's! Canyon got another Lego set! A Jeep with Boat in tow....he is our Lego Master!

Dad, putting the jeep and boat together....Canyon sits with him the whole time....within a day or so, it starts getting modified, over and over again, just like his Airplane Lego set....that he plays with every day....still!

Viola!

Handsome clothes for a handsome boy!

River was really wanting to play with his new silver dollars!

Another Lego gun....

A TOAST! To the new year! Mmmm....apple cranberry sparkling juice!

"Happy New Year!"

The RARE photo of Mom with her boy's! Happy New Year! Toasting with our sparkly juice!

NEW YEARS DAY!!! Playing in the snow in the yard....new snow!

Above the knees for the boy's in some areas....

Tuckered out after a long day!

My favorite times.....close and cuddling....so sweet my River.

Last, but not least, our Furry side of the family......Talia and Cramer.....they're not spoiled at all!
