The Wags Fam

I can't believe it's already nearing the end of January! Here is a belated New Years post. We had fun heading over to the Whites for some fun!

Hayden and Jake spent most of the night entranced in Skylanders!

Ready to celebrate!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!! (New York time)

Sparkler and popper fun!

When we headed home, the older 2 were determined to stay up until midnight. They stayed awake on a sugar high, eating stale gum drops from the gum drop tree!

Pointing to the clock - they made it!!

New New Years tradition - making creme brule! YUM!

We also got to have Robin and Jake over for a fun sleep over, complete with indoor s'mores with home made marshmallows!! YUM

Grace thought Robin was quite the fun cousin!

photo bomb!

Christmas has come and gone. It's crazy how quickly this month passes with all the fun things going on. The kids have a had a fun break so far. Now, we are ready to just relax and play this next week before heading back to school again.

Before school ended, Lilly had a special day with dad, singing songs and making a gingerbread house with him. She had a great time! (and so did dad)!!

Hayden turned 7!! He chose eggs and toast for his birthday breakfast. Then, the kids headed off to the last day of school before break. By the time they came home, it had snowed 2-3" and they were ready for Christmas break.

Grandma and Grandpa and Grandma great came that night (slow traveling) in the snow in time to celebrate the big 7 year old. He chose Swedish meatballs for his birthday dinner

The fun part of opening presents this year, was being able to read all the cards by himself!

He chose birthday pie rather than cake (just like his dad!!)

Up early the next morning before the rest of the family working on his Brickmaster Legos from the Saisslin's.

Birthday party at the tubing hill. I think the adults had just as much fun as the kids!!

Girl table :)

A real light saber!!

LEGOS!!! That set was finished by the end of the day! Hayden is quite the Lego Man!

Auntie Colleen and Uncle Ryan came for an early Christmas celebration and spoiled us ALL!!!!

Lego Friends....Lilly got pretty good at following the directions and putting together her own Lego set!

MILLENNIUM FALCON!!!! Best present EVER, according to Hayden. He aspires to be just like Uncle Ryan and own as many Star War Lego sets as he can!!

Christmas Pageant

Both working on their Lego sets

New Tradition - we went to the Manito Park green house. All the plants were covered in lights and there were more varieties of Poinsettias than I have ever seen. It was great!

Even the cactus was covered in lights...how did they do that??

Mark, Gary and I took Hayden, Lilly and Caleb up skiing one day...this was the only picture I got. They did have fun though!!

Christmas eve dinner

Millennium Falcon completed!!

One Christmas Eve present to open....PJs!

Up bright and early Christmas morning!! (by 6am)

HO HO HO!!!

Grace was a later riser, but still excited for her loot!

Fun Secret Santa gifts from Emma and Ben

Hayden and Lilly have been out with the neighbor kids riding their razors every day since!! THANKS!

The joy of Christmas!

Great gift from my Secret Santa Tyler (Dawn)!! A recipe book holder, circle cutters of all sizes and a crème brule kit (my favorite dessert ever!) I can't wait to try it out. I think it will be a new New Years tradition!
