end of the year catch up/ Christmas 2011

Silly Kids

I'm regretfully added this picture. I cant wait to get these braces off.

Caden got to put the star on the tree. We was super excited.



Rylan loves to decorate for Christmas. We also collect Hallmark ornaments. This year Caden noticed that Rylan has way more. He was a little disappointed.

Caden is loving McQueen and all the race cars.  It is his favorite ever!

This year Rylan wanted barbies. I was so irritated because I got her so many barbies when she was younger, we gave them all away because she never played with them. NOW she wants them again.



Rylan's project for this years science fair.  She compared plants in water, water and ibuprofen, and water and multivitamin.  She thought the multi-vitamin would be the best. It was the worst for the plant.  tap water was the best. She wrote the report all by herself, and I helped her type the board work. Her project made it to the county where she didn't place. She was a bit mad and wanted to leave right after award were given out. Next year we may do a project using oil. THe local oil companies give out grants for those projects.

Rylan and her Stocking. Nana made this for her a few years ago. Santa always fills it very full. The skates were from Santa as well.  She was a little off balance when she first had these, though she caught on rather quickly.

Caden and his stocking. He is using the stocking that nana made them this year. She made while we were on out trip to Vegas. He also got skates from Santa. This year was the first year Caden understood that Santa was coming and what he was all about.  In addition to the skates he got knee and elbow pads...all McQueen.

Caden and Grandpa  Harmon. Caden likes his "hangin britches."  Caden gets to go to lunch with him about once a week.  Cadens a mans man  and loves his papas.

Rylan and Grandma. Grandma Harmon has always treated Rylan just like her own.
Rylan is treated very well from them.  She loves her grandma!

Reindeer treats. Rylan,Hailey, Abbey and Caden helped to make  these treats.  They turned out so cute! Caden delivered some to Jeff and Cheree. He waked them over all by himself!



Caden thinks hes funny when he sits right in from of me while we are watching tv. He sits on the arm of the chair.
