Dance Recital

Bailee & Kenadee

I put them in the same place just for my sanity reasons. That way dress rehearsals are easier and dance recitals, but they both enjoy their classes and there favorite part about dance which those that know me they don't get this from me, is being on stage performing. They LOVE it!!

Kenadee was a little bubble bee, she got her antennas at the recital that night.
Here are some shots of her dancing (these pictures are really from the dress rehearsal) at the recital I took video, but same dance so there you go.

She is our little dancer, she has done it now for 3 years and loves it.

Bailee is in a Jazz class, she did that one because of a friend of hers that wanted her in her class.

Final Pose for Bailee, the great thing about Bailee is because she is soooo short she is always in the front, so I can always get a better picture of her.

More Dancin'

Kenadee Braces

I took her in for an evaluation and the ortho decided that she needed to do braces on her top teeth because of the way that they were starting to move backwards and going to be causing her jaw problems in the future. So we decided to do braces to pull them forward. She was so brave getting them put on, after she said that it didn't hurt at all.

What a CutIE!!!

BEAR LAKE

Our favorite place to go with our family, now when I say our family that includes my entire family. We play games, Rock Band this year (thanks to Stef & Rich), eat, swim, eat, and more swimming. Now that the kids are getting older and easier to watch in the pool we spend hours at the pool. Thank heavens for an indoor pool.

These two are the best of friends. I don't know what we would do if we didn't have Hunter to play with Curtis. They get along so well!! Cousins are great, reminds me of growing up with my cousins and swimming in my grandparents pool.

Now for the girls! Even the girls get along, the one on the left is my adorable niece Jade who is Jakes age. We have a bunch of water bugs, we had to beg and bribe to get them to get out of the pool sometimes. The good thing about them swimming so much is that we didn't have a whole lot of fighting when it was time for bed, unless you were my 2 year old, but that is another story!!!!

Bailee was such a great helper with the younger ones in the pool! If they would drift to far she would go out and get them or dive for the toys that they would drop.

Here are the CRAZY girls. My sister and I have decided that we would rather have the boys than the girls because they are soooo animated and loud. Still we are very grateful that they get along so well.

Curtis off in his own little world playing some game with a diving torpedo, and he wasn't afraid to dive down after it.

Speaking of crazy this one is purely crazy, I think that he forgets that he is only 2 and can't swim. He has learned that he can't go in the big pool or the hot tub without his tube around him. He has really learned how to get around in that tube this year. The only pool he could go in without his tube was the kiddy pool which is only 2 feet deep. Crazy but cute, good thing he is cute!!

Thanks Mom & Dad for taking us again to Bear Lake, greatest trip ever. Love to spend time with my siblings and their families playing games, being crazy and just eating as much as we can. Thanks everyone for such a great trip this year!!!!

Little of this & a little of that!

CHRISTMAS DAY

Yep, I am always behind in posting, 2010 I am hoping to be better! Anyway this is going to be another long post, not because I have so much wisdom to bestow upon you but because well let's face it 4 kids + Pictures of said kids= long post.
This post is starting with most recent and working its way back, which really is just Christmas day and Christmas Eve. This is Jon's parents opening new 4 wheeler goggles to go riding which we were kind enough to get them some, but weren't thinking at the time and didn't get us any.

Boy Grandkids in new PJ'S from Grandma & Grandpa
Girl Grandkids in their new PJ'S also from Grandma & Grandpa
Jake is really into praying right now and believe me, he needs it. Anyway this is him before opening a present.

All the kids on the Wight side waiting as patiently as they can to be able to open their presents.

CHRISTMAS DAY

(OUR HOUSE)
This is what Santa brought Curtis, as you can see he was quite thrilled!

Jake got his own remote control train, which for some reason he has a very hard time leaving it put together. Once he is done he LOVES to take it apart.

This is what Santa brought the girls, this is all that they talked about, so way to go Santa! I think, I am not so sure about all the electronic things that they are wanting now adays.

Before the children all descend upon it. We had a great year!!

Santa's gift for the family, the kids are so excited for the snow to melt so that they can get out and play.

The AFTERMATH!!

CHRISTMAS EVE

(at Grandma Teeples House)

You are all probably wondering what in the world, and it never really dawned on me until Jon came into the family that it is a little weird. Let me explain, well long story short we don't have a lot of spiritual stuff on this side so because my grandma knows that the reason for the season is Jesus she made this paper cake with 11 candles (one for each grandkid) and while we are singing Happy Birthday to Jesus each grandkid lights a candle. This used to be the only spiritual part of Christmas that we would get over there, until my mom got enough costumes for the younger kids to now act out the nativity. So here our my 4 kids, my sisters 3, my brothers 1, and my cousins 2 kids acting it out. They sure are cute!

The little shephard, acting more like one of his sheep.

We also have another tradition that we have been doing since my first Christmas. This is one of my favorite traditions. Each year my aunt comes up with an ornament that we make and put our picture on the ornament so needless to say we have hundreds of ornaments for my grandma's tree that are all homemade. The best part is going back and looking at all our pictures over the years. This year since the family is getting so big we made one ornament per family so Curtis was so excited to make it for us this year!

CHRISTMAS EVE

(at Websters)

Presents and more presents!

My girls with their stuffed dogs and carrying case. They love these!

Little boy that loves cars!

As you can see we acted it out twice on this Christmas eve. First at my parents then that night at my grandmas.

Jake and Jade as the wisemen!

Our little heavenly angels-Kenadee and Sage

I love this picture Bailee and Curtis as Mary and Joseph. The best is the look on Curtis's face I don't think he is quite sure about this!

BURNINGHAM CHRISTMAS PARTY

Meetin the BIG GUY

SANTA

Bailee above, Kenadee below

This is Jake's first time at meeting the big guy, he wasn't so sure when he showed up, so Jon had to wait in line with him and then after watching the other kids I guess he thought that he was safe.

Curtis

Hope you all had a great Christmas, I know we did and am sad to see it go so soon. On to another great year!!

DeCEmBer FUn!!!

Oh the fun we have at Christmas time, beware this post is....well to be honest LONG!!! I haven't posted what we have been up to and since it is snowing and the kids are being amazing, I thought that I would catch up on the happenings of the WiGHts. So I hope you all enjoy, because for me this is a way for me to remember what has happened more recently. EnJoY!

Teeples Annual Gingerbread House and Cookie Night

(for all of you that are confused with the name, this is my mom's side of the family)

Grandma Teeples decorating herself a gingerbread house (really a bird house but it worked the same)

All of the kids with their finished ProJeCTs!

From Left to Right: Eliza, Gracie, Jake, Kenadee, Sage, Jade, Curtis, Cory, Hunter & Bailee

those not old enough to participate are: Cohen, Paxton & Denny

Girls frosting themselves a cookie. Isn't it eat one frost one eat one? Isn't that how it works?!?
Jake is working really hard on his cookie, and every time that grandma tried to help he would push her hands away! Independent little stinker, but CUTE as a button!!
Both Grandma's going to town frosting all of the wonderful cookies made by yours truly-for those of you confused by that it's ME!!
Part of the gangJake concentrating really hard on where to put all the great candy. Maybe I should always give him a project to do, he sat STILL for a really long time.

Kenadee working on her masterpiece

Curtis and his masterpiece

Bailee working on her masterpiece, as the kids have gotten older the longer they are now taking on their gingerbread houses. It is fun to see the thought that goes into completing a gingerbread house.

WeBSteR FaMiLY ChrIStMaS ParTy!!

My dad getting into his story about the Christmas on Sesame Street. Way cute story for the kids, if I remember I will get the words from my dad and post it. It has turned into a tradition for him to tell all of us kids (yes even us big ones) the story.

Some of the gang, this is only half of the room.

We play the game of reading a story with a lot of LEFT's and RIGHT's in it with a white elephant present. For clarifying it is when you sit in a circle and everyone is holding a present and then one person reads the story and everytime you hear either LEFT or RIGHT you pass the present that direction. Anyway we had the kids play and then the adults, anyway long story short the present that Sage got was a beta fish!

If you look really close you can see it's tail!

The kids thought that was AWeSoME!!

More of the GANG!!

Grandpa Webster reading the story, he was funny he would REALLY emphasis the LEFT & RIGHT's

CurTIs lost 3 TeeTh

(yes all at the same TIME)

He was soooo excited for his dad to pull them out all at the same time, so now he is asking for his four front teeth!!

If you look close you can still see blood, I don't do well with the whole pulling of teeth.

What a CUTE toothless kid!

JaKE had the FLU!!

He was sooo funny with being sick, I was taking all the older kids to school and he was whining and as I got to the preschool to drop Curtis off Jake starting throwing up everywhere. Now those that know me really well know that I DO NOT deal well with throw up-smell, sound anything I start gagging myself. So anyway this is happening all in my car, not good for me. So long story short everytime he felt like he was going to throw up he would run into the bathroom and lay-yes lay on the toilet. I had the cleanest toilet ever, every time he would do this and then finish (only once actually throwing up) I would wipe down the toilet with a CLorOX wIPe!! Greatest things ever. So on the 100TH time of running to the bathroom I had to take his picture. It was cute to me!!

Gotta love this kid!!

CuRTis PResCHOol PRogRam

Curtis in his reindeer hat singing his songs. This was my kind of program it was just at the end of class, the last 1/2 hour and the kids all just sang songs. It was cute and fast, and with a 2 year old the faster the better!!

More songs!

This is before he lost all his front teeth, what an adorable smile!! While the kids were singing a very special visitor came by to hear the kids sing their songs.

Here's the special visitor, as the kids were singing he walked down the line and shook each of their hands. I have that on video-tried to post that, but I am not computer savvy.

SNOW FUN!!
(last few pictures, thanks for sticking around)

Some of the neighbors came by to play with the kids and this is their little friend that they made, he sure is cute. Although after the kids were done, the dog stole his nose!!!

Jake was out playing with them in the snow and he started to fall asleep, so by the time that Jon carried him into the house he was asleep. So asleep that he didn't even realize that we took off all of his snow clothes.

So CUTE!!!

My big helper, takes three times as long but he enjoyed trying to help.

Curtis is actually quite good at shoveling snow, I guess we'll keep him around a bit longer.

Buster (the dog) doesn't stray to far from the kids when they are outside, he is such a great dog. Curtis is also a great big brother, making sure that Jake stays out of the street for some reason Jake thinks that it is a great idea to do snow angels in the street. Not on of his better ideas, thank heavens for older brothers!

Favorite thing to do outside-EAT snow!! We all did it-some of us might actually still do it! You know who you are!!

Hope you all have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!
