November
flew by and now it is already the 2nd of December!
Wow! We had a really nice Thanksgiving spent with Ryan's
family. The food was great and the cousins
enjoyed playing together. We were sad
not to spend time with my parents who are still on their mission
in New York (the Bronx). They will come home
at the same time as my little brother David will (who
is in Argentina serving his mission) next Christmas. We didn't waste
any tim
e
decking the Halls and we had the inside and the outside of
the house all decorated the day after Thanksgiving. The
kids woke up that morning and we all decorated the tree together.
It was fun to see them really loving the Christmas tree this
year. Ashby and Dalton take frequent trips to see the
Christmas tree all lit up during the day in the living room. Ryan
put up the lights on the outside of the house again this year. He did a great job. We added a few more lights this year. The
kids love seeing the house all lit up at night. Thanks to my sister
Kristi who is a photographer we were able to get another family
picture taken for our Christmas cards this year. The kids were
fairly cooperative so we were happy with the outcome. 
Ryan
has a huge trial this week and last week.
He has been putting in some ridiculous hours at work lately. We
don't get to see him very much, but it
will be over soon. He has
started
his fantasy
football team with his brother Alex which
they are excited about. He is still serving as Elder's Quorum
President in our ward. Ryan has been very dilligent about getting
up before work and
going to the
gym. Ryan did end up buying the
Wii. The whole family
loves it! We all play the games together. Ashby loves making her
own
mii's
and playing the games with us. 
Stefani
is keeping busy with the kids. I have really been
loving designing new cards for our photo
card business. My women's
basketball season is coming to an end. It is a lot
of fun and makes me stay in shape! My
new obsession (thanks
to my sister Shelli)is hair styles
for Ashby. I
have always loved having a girl especially
being able to do a girl's
hair.
I found a
great new
blog that has such cool
new ideas for hairstyles. I got this
one from there. The blog is
Ashby is 4
years old. She is having a lot of fun going to her new
preschool. The teacher really does a lot of fun activities
and crafts with them. Ashby
has made
a really great friend at school. Her name is Gabby and
those 2 are like soulmates. They play so well together it is
amazing.
Ashby is still loving her dance class and loves
show off her new steps she learns. Her performance will
be in May. This year they will be performing The
Wizard of OZ. Ashby
still loves to read. I am still amazed at the books she
can read now. She is only 4 years old! She
still has about 8 months before she starts kindergarten. Her
favorite books to read are her new princess collection story
books.
Dalton
is 2 years old now! He is really
starting to become a little conversationalist now. He loves
computer games just
like his big sister. He can use the mouse to
play Jumpstart preschool all by himself. It
is really something to see this little 2 year old
clicking the mouse where it needs
to go. Dalton
has really been picking up the pace lately and has learned
all the colors and all
of the
letters of the alphabet and their sounds. I have
to credit here to the Leap
Frog Letter Factory video and Leap Frog Magnetic
letters toy. I have used these with both of my kids and
they both learned
their letters
and the sounds very quickly. His favorite song to sing
now is the ABC song. It is really cute to hear him
sing
it. Dalton does miss Ashby quite a
bit when she is at preschool. It is kind of sad. But
we have had fun spending time just the two of us. I found out
the more alone time I spend
with him just how cute, funny, and smart he is.
