Grandma and Grandpa Smith are so nice to put on the "Special Dinner" every year. Grandma does the foot work and of course Grandpa pays for it all.
We started out with dinner that was MOST delicious. We made some Olive Garden Alfredo Sauce which was incredible!! We also had some other pasta's which were very yummy!
The little boys-and Adam-These little boys are such good little friends.
We then moved on to the opening of the presents.....
The cute grandkids in their jammies that they get every year!
Cute Porter!
All Standing so we can see the pants:)
This year instead of pants the boys all got cute shirts.
Chase's was pretty awesome!

Grandpa Payne's Birthday

We traveled up to Salt Lake to spend the night with Aaron's extended family for his Grandpa Payne's 75th Birthday Party. We all got dressed up for pictures, had some dinner, cake and played volleyball and socialized-my favorite part!
Madi just loves uncle Chase! She won't leave his side. I don't think she left his side for the 4 hours we were there together. Chase really isn't ornery, he just likes to be a monkey:) We love you Chase. Cute Brayd!!
Porter played a Christmas song on the piano for everyone. He did such a good job and is an excellent performer!
Aaron preparing the cake for Grandpa. The boys love to help Aaron do everything!
Giving Grandpa his cake!! He was SO happy.
Grandma and Grandpa giving a speech. They were so happy everyone made the effort to come. It really was a good night and I'm happy we made the trek for it!
Happy Birthday Grandpa!

Porter's Christmas Party

I am trying to be a good mom and took on being the co-room mother this year. So, I was in charge of their Christmas party. We kept it simple and just did a present exchange. My two little boys wanted to come along too.
We told Brayd that after he opened a present it can be stolen 2 times. To which he replied "I will hide it behind my back so no one can see it:)
He did so good at hiding it. No one even stole his motorcycle!
My 3 "little" boys.
Ry's card was pulled last. He did so good at waiting patiently.
Good Job Baby Ry!!

4th Day Of Christmas

It's the fourth day of Christmas and you thought I forgot but Baby, I'm sneaky believe it or not.

I am so very excited for this one....I really like President Monson and I REALLY like to read about other people! It will be so fun to learn about his amazing life!
Of course I LOVE the jewelry also:)
Thanks Baby, you're the BEST!!!
My favorite part about all this is reading how creative Aaron is in his wordings.
He's cute!!
