Ward Christmas Party

Tyler and I went to our ward Christmas party on Saturday night. Unfortunately, Todd and Josh couldn't join us because Josh was sick. It was a lot of fun! Santa was there along with Buddy the elf! The kids were in heaven! And the turn out was great!

The cultural hall was full!

A Preschool Christmas

Tyler had his preschool Christmas party yesterday. He had so much fun! He looks forward to going to preschool every day....even though he only goes twice a week! His teacher is fabulous and he knows the names of all the kids in his class. He retains knowledge so well. I know he's learning a lot because he'll come home and tell me something that I know I didn't teach him. It's really neat. He's growing up so fast and becoming quite the bright little boy. Story time with Mrs. Stacey

His creation. So cute!

Visit to California

Last Sunday I loaded Josh and Tyler in the car and we headed to Indio, California to visit my sister Shea and her family. It wasn't an unfamiliar trip since we just went in October! It's so nice to live so close to her and be able to go whenever we want! While we were there, I helped her paint her oldest daughter,Kylee's room. We got about half of that done. (sorry...forgot to take pictures!) We also got take out from Goody's, a Mexican restaurant, went to Target..yay! And Shea and I went to her Relief Society Christmas party which she was in charge of! They had bread bowls with about 10 different kinds of soup, salad, pasta and desert. Very filling! And they had a nice Christmas presentation. We came home Wednesday morning, but not before Shea put air in my tires. Jeff noticed that my tires were extremely low, so thanks to him for that! And boy were they low! Pretty scary actually, to think I was driving on those tires with my boys in the car! But all is well now. We made it home safe and sound. Tyler and Josh were literally PERFECT the entire drive. 8 hours round trip! I have such good boys. We had a great trip and are looking forward to going again in March when my parents come to visit! Can't wait!Sweet Noah

Photos with Santa

Last weekend we went to the Festival of Trees in Gilbert. Tyler and Josh had a chance to meet with Santa and get a picture with him.
Tyler has been very excited about Santa Claus this year, so it was fun to see him interact with the jolly old elf.
Josh, on the other hand, was a little less excited. He didn't freak out at the sight of Santa....he just wanted his mommy. Although it is a scowl, at least he is looking at the camera in this one!

How about a little Wii time?

Tyler had been asking all day to play games on the tv, so when Todd got home, his wish was granted! Here are a few pictures of Todd and Tyler enjoying some Wii time!

I am so lucky

It's Almost Christmas!!

I'm more excited for Christmas this year than usual. Not quite sure why....But I put our tree up super early (the day after Thanksgiving) and I hurried and got all the decorations out. I'm really excited about the Christmas village we are going to display on Tyler's train table. It will be off limits to him one month out of the year. I hope he can handle it. So for those of you who don't live nearby or who don't visit us often, here is a little snap shot of our tree and the new garland I bought for the bar! YAY!

Happy Halloween From the Williamson's

Okay, so....I have a lot of blog catching up to do. (At least 3 weeks worth!) But I wanted to go ahead and post the highlights from our Halloween to tide you all over until I can finally get everything else posted. Enjoy!

Tyler had his Pre-School Halloween party on Thursday afternoon. He had so much fun!
"I AM A ROBOT"Tyler is drawing a scary face on his pumpkin.Tyler and his friend Evan seeing if their pumpkins will sink or float. They had to make a hypothesis. They guessed right! Float!Playing Halloween Bingo.Tyler got the first Bingo! Way to go!


This year for Halloween, we did the usual. We carved our pumpkin on Wednesday night. Tyler loved scooping out all the seeds and was surprisingly neat doing it!
Reaching ALL the way inside to grab some gooey seeds!
Gotcha!Here's Dad sketching the face of the pumpkin. Tyler wanted a silly pumpkin this year.
