Dewey Readmore Books...the book

Ok so I am not a big cat person...but someone told me I needed to read this book. So on Christmas Day I downloaded it to my Kindle (more about that handy little invention later...) and I finished reading it on Monday. Oh My Gosh...What a great book. If any of you are looking for a good Easy read pick this one up. It is well worth the time and/or money you will spend on it.

The Grant Family Christmas Party...Wait What the pregnant man lives in Utah???

You heard it here first...The pregnant man really lives in Utah...Yes Geoff...your HOT... or as Hadley said ridiculous... Olivia got a few necklaces and she was in heaven. She knew exactly how to put them on and she would scream as loud as she could if you tried to help her or take them away. What can I say, the girl likes to look good.

Austin with Santa

BoBo was so amazed by Santa. She didn't cry or smile...She just stared.

What a fun day. We had good food, the cousins got to play and the parents got to catch up. It seems that life keeps us all way to busy, we love all of you. Merry Christmas!!!!

Party...

Tonight we had the Grant Automotive/RE/MAX Advanced Christmas party. We played a game with gifts...Not nearly has fun as I had expected...No one wanted to trade the gifts...no one had their gift stolen...no one fought for the good gift...No punches were thrown...No tears were shed...I was incredibly disappointed.... But honestly it was a lot of fun. We had great food at a new resturant here called Zoolanders and it was perfect. Olivia ate like a horse as usual... and Austin ate like a bird as usual...

Oh Christmas Tree

We decorated the Christmas tree on Sunday. What an event. It was just that day that Olivia finally perfected her fit throwing. So everytime we would have to tell her no she would very carefully lay herself on the floor then she would begin screaming and kicking her legs...we endured this about 20 times in a 45 minute time frame...SOOO fun.
Finally she calmed down enough to hang her cow jumping over the moon ornament on the tree. Next it was Austins turn to hang his spaceship ornament up. It has sound effects...soooo we helped him hang it really high.

Since Daddy held everyone else up to hang their ornaments, Austin thought he should hold up Daddy while he hung his Santa ornament. (there was a picture of Daddy holding up Mommy while she hung her snowman ornament, but it was not a good picture so it got edited...)

Austin wanted to put the angel on the tree...

The Family...

The finished product!!!

The real angel on the tree...
