It went so fast!!!

Dagen finally decided to open presents, he spent most of the time playing with the tool set.
Brekell loved all the presents, She was also very excited to find all the dolls from"HSM" to play with.

Daxlyn loved her stroller, she began playing with it and didn't really care about the rest.

Daxlyn's presents from Santa!!!(I think he went alittle overboard...)

Christmas eve wearing their matching pj's, (Brekell picked these out and it was hard to resist her bargaining for the matching one's.)

We had such a great christmas this year. Our kids are at the perfect age so the excitement was high at our house. We got up about 7:30 and let the kids just wonder in and play around. They were mostly interested in the toys that weren't wrapped because they saw them first. It was so much fun watching them go from present to present. We then went to St. George and had a christmas party with my family. We had such a fun holiday, looking forward to a great New Year!!!

Brekell is 5!!!!

Brekell dying to open her presents!!!
Daxlyn chilled by the popcorn bowl. This is her "Cheese" smile for the camera...

The kids waiting for the birthday cake to be served...

Brekell and her birthday cake, she wanted an Ice Cream cake this year. (Fun for me to not have to make it:)

Brekell and her favorite Birthday present. She has been dying for a Hannah Montana Barbie doll.

Brekell turned the big 5 today. She was so excited for the last month, and has been counting down the days. I'll tell you what, december is the longest month ever I've decided. She was so cute opening her presents and being so excited about everything. Then we had her cousins, and Grandpa and Grandma Gammell come over for cake and other treats that she wanted to have. Now i'm sure the countdown will begin again for her next B-day. (fun for us:) Happy Birthday Brekell!!!!

And Finally!!

Yes I did it!! You are probably thinking i'm crazy, but I finally got Daxlyn's hair in Pig tails. I am so excited. For those of you who don't know, I was bald until I was 2, and Brekell's hair hardly grows at all. So to have Daxlyn be 20 months and have Pig-tails is exciting!!!

Brekell & Dagen's Christmas Play!!!

They are best buds!!! This is after they finished the play, Dagen is much happier now that the bunny ears are off his head!!!
Daxlyn enjoying the play from the cookie table, of coarse!

Dagen very sad that he had to wear his bunny ears and fluffy tail, he didn't want anyone to see him,
SHOCKER right !!! But he did end up looking at me at the end when the ears came off.
Love that kid!!!




Brekell happy as always, she was so excited about her part as the "Mom" in the play. She is so sweet to everyone, and absolutely loves taking care of them.

Kiddos!!!

Okay, we decided to try and practice getting our family pictures done. We thought we better let the kids have practice first. I didn't think it would be as much work as it was. But when you have 3 kids with different agenda's. This is what we got!!! Some turned out ok, but others were a good laugh for us. We were just glad no-one fell in the water!!!!

A funny!!!

Well I started back to school this fall. Brekell is always very concerned when I leave. So one day my husband told me to watch out for the Deer on the way home. You know small towns have to worry about those Deer on the road. So anyways Brekell, the smart little girl she is, wanted to tell me something before I left for school.

Brekell: Mom, Are you leaving for school.

Me: Yes Brekell, did you need something?

Brekell: We'll watch out for the deer,

Me: good idea, I will

Brekell: Oh and the Elephants!!!

Me: Wow, do we have a problem here with elephants now, I better watch out for them.....

So for all of you who live in Sanpete County, I hear the elephants are bad. So be very careful not to hit one.

Halloween Fun!!!

Dagen our future Hunter, of Coarse!!!

My very own Hannah Montana, And my little Princess Daxlyn(finally a girlie girl)...

(And yes, we did have the hair for Brekell, but she decided to was too itchy to wear and wasn't that fun to wear a wig:))

Well our day started off like normal. I gave the kids a bath and got them in their fun costumes. We were all ready to go for the day, when Brekell decided that she didn't feel good. I felt so bad because she was so excited to be Hannah Montana. So we spent the rest of the night dealing with the flu and with fever's. Dagen was still going to go trick-or-treating, but fell asleep at 6:00 for the rest of the night. So needless to say, we sort of skipped halloween this year. So we'll be ready for next year. I guess!!!!
