Spent the week between Christmas and New Years with our friends at the cabin. Cant say enough, we needed the down time. Christmas this year was so busy. Good busy, but not stop from thanksgiving to Christmas. Felt good to leave the rat race. I highly recommend time with your family, no phones, no computers, lots of snow, and tons of old movies. We played some really fun games, like Wii dance and good old fashioned Yahtzee. Cards, big breakfasts, sleeping in, talking, reading a magazine. ahhhh, the snow was great too, the kids can play on the hill to the cabin for days on end. the snowmobiling led to all kinds of fun adventures. We hauled kids up giante hill and the snowboarded and sledded down. Hot chocolate and soup was the staple for the week. All in All simply perfect week, except mason got croup and had to go to the insta care in Park City. and the Drive home was UGLY.

Christmas Card

Could not choose, so I sent both. Our super talented and darling friend Brooke took our pictures at Wheeler Farm. And then her Super Talented Sister put this together... Awe the cute babies are growing up. This awesome guy I married still makes my heart beat faster, and the 3 amazing kids make me smile everyday. I feel very blessed to have this simply sweet and delicious FAMILY!!!

Yes Ti's the SEASON, to be Jolly. Ahhh!!! Well maybe busy, stressed,crazy, short tempered, Over scheduled, and Spent. Oh that sounds pretty depressing. I am just be overly dramatic as usual. I am very blessed and so lucky to have this busy crazy life and although this is my season for chaos, I revel in all of it. We have had an incredibly busy December. The best part was the time spent with our family. I wish somehow we could take a deep breath and slow down. Time is speeding up and our kids are getting bigger every day. Brett as usual spoiled me rotten with sweet and thoughtful gifts and the kids all took special care in buying nice gifts for us too. 2010 Was a great year with new and exciting things for all the Holman's... Here's to an awesome year ahead of realizing what we have and being happy and content.

We had a fun weekend celebrating this great kid. A UTAH Party finished the party weekend off. I love being your Mom Max. You make this adventure so AWESOME.

Halloween Fun

We had such a great Halloween this Year. It fell on Sunday, so we celebrated on Saturday. The Boys choose their costumes and they were different than anything we had done before. Max was a Utah Utes fan, and Mason was a Mobster. Sage and hannah were funny, they decied to go as Justin Beiber and Taylor Lautners girlfriends. Brett is such a good Daddy. He headed out in the rain and they went for hours. While I manned the door. I must say, I would rather have my job than his. Don't tell him though. Brett's family and my parents came for some yummy clam chowder. As always I love Halloween.

Life is Busy, Life is Good

We have been very busy around here for the last few months. So this is my attempt to catch up on some blogging. We had a flood in our basement and decided that the 1990's had to go (Finally)!!! So needless to say, we took on a huge project. We painted, and tore out old carpet, re carpeted and are replacing old brassy door handles with dark bronze or oil rubbed bronze not sure exactly what it is called. Brett worked his butt off, and the end result is AWESOME. When we bought this house from a former Bishop. It was a not my style, Brett assured me that over the years we could make it our own. Baby Blue and Mauve, YIKES! We Finally live in OUR house. No more wall paper. The last two rooms with WALL Paper are gone. The Pheasant, forest green and burgundy trim, yea we will not miss.
