We've had a lot of fun this past month! I just adore this time of year. I'm sad it's gone, but I'm happy about this next year, a lot of big milestones will happen. Here are a bunch of random pictures from the past month, in no particular order.
John was on the computer holding Dallin, and Dallin just passed out. I think it's a sweet picture
Dallin thinks it's hilarious when he sticks both his fingers up his nose and says "Da da da da". We can't help but burst out laughing, which I know encourages him, but how can we not???
On New Years Day we went up to Tucson to visit Jess and Jon Rutherford and John's sister and her family. Here is John with the very adorable Aimee.
We went with Jess and Jon to the Reid park and had a picnic.
John got caught talking to a random person at the park, and came running with Dallin on his shoulders to catch up. Dallin was laughing so hard, it was adorable!
Here are Jess and Jon's twins. They were so well behaved, they just sat and soaked in the scenery. In front is Karsten, and behind is Adon (I'm pretty sure, anyway!)
The two Johns and a Dallin.
Ok, so Dallin is always making this face, and it makes us all laugh. It started at the dinner table, and now he does it anytime. He's such a hoot! He gets pretty into it sometimes too. Last Sunday during Sacrament Meeting I looked over and he made "the face", but he arched his back so hard that he tipped backwards and fell over. Then he got up like he wasn't sure what had happened. It was so hard not to laugh out loud!!!
John has been getting home from work around 7 this past month. (He leaves about 5) So, he has the energy for a wrestle and a book with the kids, and then crashes. Here is him with the boys. He's such a good daddy.
On December 18th Reenie came home from her mission in Spain. Actually, her flight was delayed, so it was actually the 19th at about 12:30 that she landed - there were weather conditions in Denver, I guess they had "freezing fog", whatever that is! But either way she made it home safely.
It was way after the kids bedtime, so they stayed home with daddy and I went with my parents to the airport. My dad was able to check exactly where the plane was, the altitude, the ETA and everything on his blackberry, so that was a helpful tool as the flight arrival time kept changing.
And here's Reenie in the car ridde home. (Sorry about the pic, Reenie, it's the only one I had!)

Here are the kids playing with Granddpa Goates. They all love their Grandpa, but I guess that's obvious, isn't it?
Here is our home-theater system. The kids pull up their chairs and watch their movie. Today's feature film: Bob the Builder! I love how Dallin's feet don't reach the ground, it's so cute.
Jacob came over for a day and the kids made a fort outside on the basketball court. They spent a couple hours out there working on this masterpiece.
I think one of the boys must have put Dallin in this crate, but Dallin didn't seem to mind. At least they gave him a toy to play with while he was stuck in there!
I have had a lot of fun hanging out with just Bryson while Cory is at school. He's such a good kid, always wanting to help. Here he is helping me paint the front room.
Bryson loves climbing up in the tree in our front yard. He sits there and waits when we're expecting company.
So, that was our December. Loads of fun!
