Snowed-In!

Idaho has had record breaking snow this season!! Like they don't even budget for snowplows!! Some can bearly get out of the neighborhoods, cause everyone just gets stuck! Snow after snow after snow storm! Our kids are LOVING all the snow day!!! Sledding, building snowmen, snow forts, snow ball fights, and much time at the ski resort has been had!! I will admit, being indoors watching the soft white snow fall while sipping some hot cocoa or Pero is my thing!

We got Candy-Caned!!!!

It was a fun surprise to wake up and find that we had been "Candy-Caned" all over the yard!!

Squeaker and I had a great time gathering candy canes all over!!

Such a fun surprise on a wintery cold morning!!

My Surprise Christmas Gift!

Brandon totally surprised me on Christmas night at his family Christmas party by playing guitar and singing the Garth Brooks song "She's Every Women." It was so so sweet!! Yes, I had tears streaming down my fave! Thanks B for such a meaningful and sweet tender gift! Something I will always cherish! Even better was his siblings who recorded it for me, so I could just enjoy the moment! Much loves Babe!!

She's sun and rain, she's fire and ice A little crazy but it's nice And when she gets mad, you best leave her alone 'Cause she'll rage just like a river Then she'll beg you to forgive her She's every woman that I've ever known She's so New York and then L.A. And every town along the way She's every place that I've never been She's makin love on rainy nights She's a stroll through Christmas lights And she's everything I want to do again It needs no explanation 'Cause it all makes perfect sense For when it comes down to temptation She's on both sides of the fence No it needs no explanation 'Cause it all makes perfect sense When it comes down to temptation She's on both sides of the fence She's anything but typical She's so unpredictable Oh but even at her worst it ain't that bad She's as real as real can be And she's every fantasy Lord she's every lover that I've ever had And she's every lover that I've never had

Christmas Morn' 2016

Christmas Morn when its still dark out and peaceful! Such a great time to reflect on the true meaning of Christmas, our Savior's birth. What a sweet special time that was. And can only imagine how Mary felt.

Since our church is bright and early in the morning, the tykes got new church digs and patiently waited to open their Santa gifts after our church service. What a nice day to start our Christmas day!

Silver & Gold

Squeaker had her Christmas dance performance at a Retirement Home in the community. The dance company likes to brighten the older folks faces with these cute little dancers! They even had a little stage for them to perform on. The song was Silver & Gold and Squeaker nailed it! Sooo cute!!

Bayley Family Christmas card pic!

Merry Christmas from the Bayley crew! Always a little stressful getting photos for a card!! There is this awesome Boise sign by the movie theaters I thought would be a great family pic! It was hard getting the word and all of us in it, plus it was FREEZING! So this was the best we got! Chopped it down to a "B" for Bayley, that works! We love ya all and hope you have the best Christmas!

It's the Little Things!

When you decorate your fairy's home for the holidays!! Lots of glitter should be included! And he own Christmas countdown too!

When your Elf- Buddy bring you a Christmas countdown chart! All the Squeals!!

A Little Help From My Friends!

Love that Squeaker goes to her Big brother for some drawing time at church! Cutest thing ever! Sitting on H's lap and learning how to draw! Squeaker has gotten pretty good too, thanks H for being a great example to your littles!! Love this!

Visiting with Santa!!

The little love when Santa comes to visit at our church's Christmas breakfast! Lil'Gman giving his wish list to the man in ReD!
