Cardon Christmas

My Grandma & Grandpa Cardon are seriously the cutest ever! They are so thoughtful (all the time) but especially on Christmas, they always go above & beyond to make sure we all have a great Christmas & see the true meaning behind it! This year they bought every couple a big sized Book of Mormon. My Grandpa calls me Blondie & Justin Tiny. Makes me laugh every time.

They are sure a great example to all of us & I look up to them in many ways!!!

Santas Cookies & Freckles

We came home from my grandma & grandpas house & made cookies for Santa & set out peanuts on the porch for the reindeer (Justin made this a tradition & the kids love seeing the smashed/eaten peanuts on the porch in the morning)..Plus we had to say goodbye to Freckles. >>Carter was not a happy camper, you can tell in the first picture that he had been crying {he is still super tender hearted} & he did not want Freckles to leave...We had a lot of fun with Freckles this year, he even got to ride into town to Carter's school performance & listen to him sing :) Once we told them he would be back again next year, everything was alright.

Christmas Eve-Johnson's

We went to my Grandma & Grandpa Johnson's for Christmas Eve as always, a good time, good food & good company.

Our family of 4!

All 5 grandkiddos!

The boys :)

Tenley got a Doc Mcstuffins doctor kit, she of course loved it!

Carter got a crayola coloring kit!

rug rats!

Its fun to stick with family traditions & let our kids in on them! Family is the best!

Sledding!

We spent a lot of our snowy days sledding.. We would make laps up around our house & then down the hill, & then go on the reservoir road as well. Which was perfect because each kids sled went in a tire track & they wouldn't get all the snow up in their faces.

no hands!

The kids would sled for hours, even when they were soaken wet & freezing!
