Ending 2009 and Beginning 2010

Christmas was great and apparently we did good on telling Santa what Gavin wanted. Gavin has played his DS every chance he gets. He plays it anywhere and everywhere. It is pretty entertaining. It is also a great bargaining tool for Mom to get him to focus and behave. Once again I find myself black mailing my kids :)


For New Years Eve we headed over to Ashley's. It was a "Prineville" weekend. Blayne committed to Jacob to try to be there every other weekend to help build their house, we have been pretty consistent. So, it was a work weekend that happened to also be New Years. We got to Ashley's and she had a houseful! We managed to stay up late enough to celebrate. Then Friday it was back to work.
Ashley has this hat at here house that every kid managed to have it on at least once this weekend, it was hilarious!!





Shortly after, Maddalyn was playing and apparently she couldn't decide which toy to play with so it was entertaining to watch her try to play with all of them at the same time. Ashley referred to her as a bag lady.


So as entertaining as 2009 ended, off we go to 2010! We have several hopes and plans for this upcoming year. We are so blessed and have so many things to be thankful for including our healthy family. So here's to you and yours, hoping you have all the blessings you stand in need of. HAPPY NEW YEAR from the Yates!!!
