STIKA FAMILY

Chelsey with her cute blanket my sister made for the girls for Christmas


Notice in the background Jake got a drum kit from Santa and it actually hasn't been to bad and has worked really well when I tell the kids to go play Chelsey a wake up song. She loves it!



We went to Wyoming for our family party and got to stay in a hotel and this was so exciting for the kids. We are lame and never go anywhere so a hotel stay with a pool is the coolest thing for the kids.

As you can see Morgan wanted nothing to do with Santa this year.

Morgan cried on her Dora couch for a while Christmas morning before she realized she could open the presents now and she loves her new mailbox toy that you put the letters in the top and open the door, very cute toy.

Jason and I went to Vegas for our Christmas presents. We went to the UofU and Boise bowl game. It was a lot of fun and so nice to get away from everyday life here. Look at my pant legs though. It rained nonstop the entire 3 days we were there and our legs got soaked everytime we went anywhere.

Malorie in her costume for the Christmas dance recital.

So I was noticing that its been since August since I posted anything so I figured I would put up a few new pics cuz I am sick of looking at the ones that have been on for the last 5 months. A few new things have happened since August, Malorie is in Kindergarten, Jake goes to preschool, Morgan is 17 months and is very sweet and fun, but she is definately a little tornado in our house just walks around getting things out and throwing them on the floor. I am not sure how people keep their houses clean with little kids! I have been doing medical transcription at home and I really like it because I don't have to leave the house. Jason is interviewing for an engineer job at his work this month and hopefully will get this one. Oh and our other big news is that Chelsey is having a baby boy in March. I would have to say that is BIG news. If I make it through her teen years it will be a miracle. We are excited for him to get here though and this is just another bump in lifes road that we will make it through. However, I am really not digging the thought of being called grandma for any reason. I mean really, GRANDMA!! Hopefully gray hairs do not come along with the name and I am working on something else he can call me.
