Christmas

Here are some pictures of the family trip to Salt Lake Isaac( brother in law) and Kaidence who I was in charge of cause I have the most body fat and need to get used to carrying around a two month old, plus he is pretty cute.

Santa Came Early

So today we had the chance to go up to base and be sponsored for Lunch with the 84 Combat Sustainment Wing. This was all part of Operation Santa. The wing was sponsoring 3 families for Christmas who had a member of their family that is deployed. This was a neat experience that we will never forget. I just wish that I had a way to show the wing our appreciation.The commander who took us around to a couple different buildings to eat. Ian at first was shy but by the end he wanted to be next to his new friend. Me trying to get the web cam with Blake so that he could be involved in our surpriseSanta!!!! the boys had no idea that later todaythat Santa was coming to our house. Ian was soooo cute after he was telling Aunt Summer that Santa came through his front door.
