Oh Aspen...

 Aspen and Trent are the only two people that I know,

that can pull off this awkward face.

 This is Fall-Fast, Aspens tree that she made up

and takes care of. This girl is too creative.

The story Aspen wrote. "once their was a Christmas

tree that I found by my door. I liked it so I kept it.

I watered it and decorated it. I love it and it loved me. 

I named it Fall-Fast and Fall-Fast named me ToTeep.

I love you"

Earlier in the year, Aspen entered the Reflections

Contest at school. She won a medal!! 

We are so happy for her, Aspen worked

very hard on the project.

Ward Party...

 Its nice to have a ward Christmas breakfast so I dont

stress about being out too late. The real reason we go

is so my kids can pick an ornament off the giving tree.

Giving is a good lesson my kids need to learn.

This is how Raider feels about Santa...

Dance...

 This is Aspens second time doing dance,

although she enjoyed it, Aspen has decided

that dance is not for her. Aspen would

rather stick with gymnastics and soccer. 

 Since I believe seven year old girls

do not need make-up, Aspen didn't

wear any and she was still beautiful!!!

Christmas Choir

 This is the second year Aspen has sang in

the school choir. The Christmas program

is so cute, Aspen does a great job.

Grandma Jan sat with Raider (he was in bed)

so Trent and I could both go to the concert. Plus Jan 

had already seen it at school. Grandpa Tony,

Grandma Gray and Tyson came with was.

Aspen is so blessed to have so many

people who love and support her.

Sunday Activities

 Aspen let Raider have a taste of her sucker and

he paid her back with a kiss.

Later in the day cousin Zoey came over to 

decorate gingerbread men with Aspen. 

Cousins are the best!!!

Riverwoods

 My mom, Lacey, Aspen, Raider, and I went to

Riverwoods to see the lights, see the 

gingerbread houses, did some shopping

and ate a little chocolate. We left before Santa came,

we are seeing him next week anyways.
