December Fun!

Cameron the Elf came to our house December 1st! 

Tyce was SO excited!  He looks so forward all year to Cameron coming...

The twins are playing AAU basketball for the Salt Lake Rebels.  They've only had two games so far, they won one by quite a bit and got slaughtered in the other.  Should be an interesting season!

Jackson and Tyce enjoying mommy's heating pads...

Cameron the Elf having fun on the fan with some furry friends...

Crazy cat lady snuggling Brody and Luna...

Chester has LOVED sleeping under the Christmas tree!  He was NOT happy when we put presents under it and he couldn't fit anymore.  Christmas morning when the presents were gone he could not get under there fast enough...

 Well this looks like a good place to rest my chin...

 Brody and Josh, two peas in a pod...

 Josh no longer believes in the elf so he asked if he could help with him this year...

 Again, Jenn the crazy cat lady...

 Ok, Luna is OBSESSED with Parker.  She is not an overly cuddly cat but she sleeps like this every single night with Parker.  As soon as he lays down she sprints up to him and snuggles into his arm.  In the middle of the night if he turns on his stomach Luna walks all over his back and paws at his face so he'll turn over so she can get in her spot.  Hilarious that girl! 

 Hanging out on the warm dryer...

  After some rough days sweet Parker surprised me at work with flowers!  He knows I don't like flowers for Mother's day or Valentine's day but no reason flowers?  Absolutely! 

 Ok, last cat pic I promise...here's brother and sister fighting...

 Second annual Poulsen/Morrill gingerbread house making party!  Major props to Kesti and I for putting together three houses each.  Highlights were "roofses, brickered," Hayden's failed house, and lots and lots of noise, mess, and fun...

So I've been so proud of Josh he's been getting up early in the mornings before school to go play basketball with Parker.  His skills have definitely improved!  Here is the tired guy getting ready to go one morning...

Lucky Parker got tickets to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas concert AGAIN this year!!  We got three tickets and two tickets so we gave the two to Kesti and Jeremy and Parker and I took my grandma.  It was AMAZING, one of the best for sure! 

 We swap names every Christmas with Parker's family and this year Christine had our family!  She spoiled the boys with awesome socks, candy, and gift cards...

While Parker and I were wrapping presents the boys entertained themselves with bags and wrapping paper...

Morrills were staying at Little American for a few days and invited us to come up and go swimming!  They LOVED the half indoor half outdoor pool...

 And, of course, the hot tub...

 Then back to the room to open their Christmas jammies from Grandma Morrill!

More December fun to come!
