Visit with Santa (December 2010)

We went to see Santa and this was the first year it went better with Nyah.  Usually they don't know what to think about it when they are younger but it went really well with Nyah and Ryker didn't mind a bit.  I'm sure it helped that he had the example of his older sister. :)

He was a great Santa and amazing with the kids.  After, we went on a "hay ride" behind a tractor and the kids liked it although it was a bit chilly.

Me with my eyes half-closed - typical...

Check out those smiles!

Trip to Papa and Kaki's - December 2010

We took a trip to Utah the first part of December for our Christmas trip.  Nyah had a great time playing outside (she would stay outside all day every day if we let her).  Her time outside included time riding the tractor with Papa.  You can tell how much she enjoyed that. :)

Then here are pictures of the kids with Papa. We were able to spend time talking and just hanging out. You can see Ryker was still at the age where he doesn't really get what's going on with pictures.  He's still a cute baby even though he's "zoning out".



Sleeping Angels (Nov. 28 - Dec. 4, 2010)

I just love taking pictures of these sweet sleeping kids. :)  They are so precious and it reminds me how innocent they are!  I love them so much.

AK's Birthday - 2010

So my new goal is a post a week to try to catch up.  I guess we'll see how it goes.  I thought about just posting Halloween for this year and skipping everything in between but I'm going to give catching up a try for a bit.  It was kind of fun to look at these pictures.  I can't believe how much Ryker has changed in the last year.  Kind of sad.... :(

Well here are the pictures of my last birthday.  You can see Ryan made mud pie.  I can't remember the last time I requested anything else.  I try to be predictable in some areas of my life since others just aren't.  And you will have to check out what Ryan is using to light the candles - we wouldn't want to be traditional and use just matches.

Then the last picture you will see that Ryker is a huge fan of mud pie (and ice cream in general).  I guess he has some Pincock blood in him after all. :)

Love these kids and Ryan did a fantastic job on the mud pie!  It was tasty.
