FHE @ The Walkers

Last night for family home evening, we helped Grandma and Grandpa decorate their house for Christmas.

Deanna got out all of Grandma's cute nick nacks and decorated the entertainment center and fireplace mantle

The kids decorated Grandma and Grandpa's little tree!

I set up their big Christmas tree and put out this cute little porcelin set on their piano. Aaron and I got this set for them 9 years ago, and wish we would've bought one for ourselves when we had the chance. Isn't it cute?

Grandma helped Deanna decide where to put all of the nick nacks.

Bring On The Holidays

Thanksgiving Day

This year for Thanksgiving we had dinner at my parent's house. The dinner was awesome. We had everything you can think of, and tons of it. All of the grandkids had fun with their cousins.
Grandma Nelson helped the grandkids make a gingerbread house. She also played a couple of rounds of Memory with them. -What a wonderful Grandma she is.

We stopped to visit Grandma and Grandpa Walker, and were lucky because Grandma Bullock was there!

I think this is the first time she's seen Alyssa!

Isn't This Precious?

I'm not sure what it is about these two. Every time they're with each other they fall asleep. - I love both of them so much!

Sweet Little Sasha

Shane and Svetlana welcomed Sasha into the world last night shortly after 11:00 pm. I got to meet her this morning, and she's beautiful. She's got tons of dark hair, and the cutest dimples you've ever seen. It was fun visiting with Shane and Svet. What proud parents they are! It's hard to believe that my little brother is a daddy. -But already he's a pro. Congratulations you two!

...Those dimples I was talking about

I love newborn yawns

Shane changing his first diaper!


Sasha was so patient with him.

Isn't she sweet?

She weighed 6 lbs 12 oz

Welcome, welcome!

My Little Sluffer

Today I let Brody stay home from school. He fell asleep yesterday evening around 6:00 pm and didn't wake up until 9:00 pm. When he did wake up, he was wired. Aaron and I tried to help him go back to sleep, but he was awake the entire night. A lot of children with Autism have a difficult time sleeping. This isn't the first time that Brody's had an energy nap and decided to not go back to sleep. Any way, I'm glad I kept him home. I don't get to spend very much time with him now that I've gone back to work. It's been fun having him home. I sure love him!

My Little Animal Friends

Every time I travel away from home, I see my little animal friends. These guys are always grazing in the field along Redwood Rd. I love seeing them. It reminds me of when I was a child, and I'd go for rides in the car with my family. My dad would always point out deer, pheasants, antelope, etc. to me and my siblings. It makes me appreciate where I live. I love Utah.
