Our Christmas in St.George!

To keep things short, we had a great Holiday break with family in St.George for
Christmas and New Years! It was a break well needed for Tyler and I actually got
to spend time with my non-stressed Husband which made my whole christmas!!
Addie couldn't get enough of her cousins especially the boys!
Go figure! She loved spending outside time with Easton and Mason
and tried to do everything these 6 year olds were doing!
Angel Addie during the Christmas Nativity story, Christmas Eve
at Great Grandma and Grandpa Ence's house.
Christmas morning at "Jamma" and Grandpa Hansens! Don't we just look lovely! We
had so much fun watching Addie open her presents and seeing her
get so excited about the tool set and stroller Santa brought her!!!

Addie even got some good time in with Dad one of which
was feeding the ducks at a golf course pond near
"Jamma" and Grandpa McFadden's house.

A traditon in my family is to cut out snowflakes sometime
during the holiday season! Ty did the top one.



So besides getting to ride on an airplane which was all Addie could
talk about this event ranked right up there in her book! Daddy took
her for a tractor ride around Great Grandpa Ences farm.

She wasn't scared a bit to get up there with Dad and go for a ride.
She also loved getting to see the new baby calf up close that was born
on Christmas day and going inside the chicken coupe to look for eggs!

Oh how we miss the red rock of Dixie!
Addie and I had a blast climbing around the red rock
Pioneer Park.
She would find little caves or holes to climb through.

The expert climber! She learned how to use her hands
and feet to climb up the steep big rocks. This girl had
all the rocks in world around her and she was in heaven!
"Jamma Rosie" and Addie having fun on the trampoline.
She doesn't look like she was having fun because as soon as
i pull out the camera her smiles disappear somewhere!!!
And thanks to Aunt Kenzi who made Addie
some new pajama pants! She loves her new P.J's!

I can't believe you were able to keep it a secret for that long! Congrats! I can't wait to see little baby boy Hansen.

It looks like you guys had a blast. I swear Addie's hair looks longer than when I saw her last...is that possible?

Sounds like a great Christmas. I love that Santa brought Addie a tool set, how fun! Benjamin would have been in heaven on those tractors. Addie is a lucky girl!
