We got Lizzie's preschool pictures back this week. She was so happy in them and so cute! I really love her smile. She seems too big and grown up lately!

I went in to check on Lizzie the other night and this is what I saw. She completely rolled out of her bed and just kept on sleeping! She was so exhausted. She has pretty much stopped napping, so by 7:00 she is too tired to even stay in her bed!

Here's a couple more school pics from Lizzie. She has been really into arts & crafts lately and she LOVES playdoh. She plays with it for a long time and she makes all sorts of creations.

After 11 days in China Danny finally came home on Friday! We were all so happy and excited to have him home. But I think Lizzie was the most thrilled, she really missed Danny. She had a meltdown at school because she was sad about Danny being gone. Everyday she'd ask when he was coming home and tell me how much she missed him! She is such a daddy's girl!

The kids had their annual Christmas sleepover at G & G Shields house. They had a blast!
Taylor and Jeffrey stay up really late and draw on the other kids faces. They think it's pretty funny.

We had a really fun Hawkins Christmas party in Provo on Saturday. We had a yummy dinner, a snowflake making contest, played Bingo and visited with family. It's a wonderful party!

More pics from the Hawkins party. Cute little Hannah, she's our favorite!

More pics from the sleepover. They did so many fun things; pizza, scavenger hunt, gelato at Harmons, treats, games, hot tubbing, drinking cocoa, opening gifts, sleeping around the Christmas tree etc... The kids all look forward to this party! Thanks for a fun night!

The boys both started basketball this week. Isaac scored 4 points at his game and Taylor scored 6!

Here's a couple of pics from Danny's trip to China!

He had a good trip in China. The food was interesting. Here's a fish for dinner, some other things he ate were; duck, donkey, snake, turtle and camel hamstring! It sounded really exotic and a little gross!
Less then 2 weeks until Christmas we are so excited!!!
