HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

I LOVE YOU DAD!!!
My wonderful Dad's birthday happens to be on Christmas! So every year my family gets together on Christmas Eve for some family traditions and to celebrate his birthday! I just want to let my Dad know how much I love him. He has done so much for me in my life and now not only me but my family. We are all SO thankful for him! We love you so much and hope you had a great birthday!

Good thing all the grand kids were there to help blow out all the candles!! :)

** Santa **

Since it's Bayleigh's first Christmas she HAD to see Santa! Mike and I attempted to take her Sunday afternoon thinking it wouldn't be too busy. Obviously we were wrong and decided to come back another day. So Ashley and I decided to take all our kids on Christmas Eve while Mike and Nick had to work. After two hours of waiting in line and five kids we could honestly say it wasn't too bad!!!

Bayleigh LOVED Santa she wouldn't stop smiling at him! Too Cute!!!
As you can see Hallie was a little shy... poor Chaz had to be woken up... and Easton just loved it!

Temple Square

Every year the Sterner family has made it a tradition to go downtown, get some food, and then head over to Temple Square to walk around and see the lights. I remember doing this since I was little! I love the fact even though our families are growing we still get together and go. We had a lot of fun!

Zoo Lights


Saturday night our family went to Zoo Lights! Dean, Jessica, and Peyton went with us and it was so much fun! We all got bundled up grabbed a small snack, some hot chocolate, and off we went. None of us had been before so we had no idea what to expect... it turned out to be pretty cool and the kids loved it!

Madi and Peyton. The 3D glasses they have on turned the lights into snowmen! They were pretty cool!!!

She looked so cute all bundled up! Dean, Peyton, and Jessica
You can almost see Bayleigh's face! :)Madi, Bayleigh, and Kasey
This was Bayleigh at the end of the night, I guess the lights wore her out!

O Christmas Tree!

After our not so enjoyable Thanksgiving, considering Bayleigh had gotten the flu on the Monday before and then Kasey got it on Thanksgiving then passing it on to both Grandmas, Grandpa, and Aunt Dawn! Sorry guys! We had the weekend to recuperate and got our Christmas decorations up. Me, Mike, and Bayleigh decorated the tree. Bay loved the lights... even though she still has no idea what is going on. It was way fun. We are so excited for her first Christmas! Madi unfortunately didn't want to join in on the fun! Missed ya.






* I can't tell you how much we love Christmas. It is the best time of the year! *
