The Rain
The rain is a treat here and I guess that Luke has never seen an umbrella before because he got biggest grin on his face when I handed one to him.My Birth
We went to out for a fun Greek dinner and Uncle Micah was in town for babysitting duty while we went to Twilight of course. An Early Christmas Present
Oooh, a wonderful, manly, purple kitchen set sent to us from Grandma Linda. Which he loves. We had been eyeing the pretty, red Costco one but this one keeps him entertained for a lot longer with all of the fun features like a blender. This is such a winner. Good buy Ma Linda.My Utah B-Day Party
Amy and Micah made the cake. Boy was it ever to tasty and pretty. I am so craving a bite right now.
For some reason they were watching a movie and snuggling like this. It was very sweet. I think that they missed each other. Christmas Eve
Anthony the Shepard. (The font size is having a mind of its own and won't go back to small)
The greatest Great-great-grandma in the world! Grandma Roselle is 96 and going strong. Wittier and funnier than ever. Her secret is lots of chocolate and coke. I need to do a whole post on her soon. I love her.
Luke getting nervous as Santa walks in.
He was so cute. He waited and waited and waited for all of the millions of cousins and finally Santa said "well it's time for me to go now." Oh, no. His tiny present was hidden but we finally found it. He jumped on up with a little smirk on his face.
It looks like he is going to throw that worthless Winnie the Pooh but it is actually his most cherished toy still to this day. Good boy.Christmas Morning
The Snow
Luke and my mom shoveling
Sledding with the Snows, Jordan, Camilla and Danny. This is was a hit with Luke. I was surprised that he liked the snow so much. Hence the many pictures and big smiles.
The brothers trying to do something? I guess pile on top of each other. There is Jordan flying off.
Jo and Co. Such cute newlyweds.
A New Year
Utah game. Dave loves this picture for obvious reasons- Utah game, Vranes jersey in the back, Luke grinning. I do not- pictures taken under you never are flattering. But, ending one year and celebrating a brand new year is always so exciting to me.

...inside the house. Not so much outside. We are still driving around with the a.c. blasting while singing along to Christmas music.
Ta da. This one is for you, Cara O. Sorry it is sideways. 
We went to a Christmas festival.
It was fun. There was a petting zoo, hot cocoa, carriage rides, and trains. Too lazy to wait in any of those lines except the hot chocolate one of course.
Look at Wilbur the runt. SO cute! I am the animal hater of all animal haters but I still secretly wanted one. The little piggies were only $75.
Love that little mug. Since silhouettes are all the craze these days I am tempted to do one of Luke. I think that he has a very cute profile.
Ward Christmas party. Luke was all work and no play in this picture. I talked him into waiting in line and sitting on Santa's lap. He surprisingly obliged. He wasn't excited about it but I told him that Santa needed to know what toy he wants for Christmas.
So precious. Look at Luke secretly smiling and trying to act cool.
The next day at the park. This one is for the future wedding video as Cara would say.
The kids had enough after a couple of hours of riding the train and carousel. Poor Kate!
Kate, Ava and Luke watching a movie at Cara and Tanna's aunt and uncles condo. Luke is lovin the Fox girlies. Thanks for the fun visit everyone! 
Speaking of Tanna and Cara, these two sisters (sisters that married brothers) and their sister-in-law Crystal started a children's shoe line called Foxpaws. They are tdf (to die for). Unique, stylish and I want every pair. Luke sports the blue loafers and always gets compliments. I will have to post a picture of them. His favorite part is the paw print tag on the shoes. He calls them his Blue's Clues shoes! Everyone in Utah has already posted all about them and knows which shops they are sold at but for the "Zonians" their website is 
Here is one with 
The adult table + Ava. Thanks everyone for good eats and good company!
