Welcome Home, Spencer!

Our nephew, Spencer, came home from his mission this month so we went to Post Falls this weekend to hear him speak in Sacrament meeting. It was great to see him again and fun to be around Scott & Shari and family.

Christmas

The kids get to open one present on Christmas Eve....new jammies! Funny thing is, each year they forget it's pajamas.Santa was loaded up on treats this year! Cookies, chocolates, milk, Diet Coke (Todd has convinced the kids that Santa is lactose intolerant and would rather have D.C), and carrots for the reindeer. The kids still talk about the carrot crumbs the reindeer left in the bowl. Carter left a note for Santa so he wouldn't over eat! Santa delivered just what everyone wanted. Carter was so happy to have the Nerf machine gun.




Hali was about to burst out of her skin when she opened Bop-It!
And Paige was excited to get a princess piano!

Gingerbread Houses

All the Sanderson cousins got together to decorate gingerbread houses today. Paige was so excited to do her own house this year! She stuck with it for a long time and did a good job.Hali's house was very organized and neat. She and Brooke had a fun time sitting next to each other.

Carter went for a log cabin look on his house! It was all brown, with the exception of candy canes on the back. He even had a campfire in the front with rocks around it!




Carter, Paige, Brooke, Hali, Kaden, Koy and Kelsi with their finished houses. We missed Kreed in our picture. He got his done in a jiffy and they were off! We look forward to making houses again next year!
