Happy Birthday Jed

It was Jed's birthday Sunday. Calie & I made this cake for him. I don't know how funny he thought it was... But we sure got a kick out of it!

My parents took us to Market Street Grill on Saturday for his birthday and I got these pictures.

Christmas 2008

Our holidays were great!

We had a lot of fun with all of our family. On Christmas Eve we had all of the Elton's and my parents over for dinner a games. We had such a good time!

Christmas Day my parents came over to watch Kylie and Steele open all of their presents and exchange gifts with them. Then we went over to Wes and Peggy's and spent the day and dinner with them.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIS

Today is Kylie's Birthday! She is TEN!I just thought I would tell you all how awesome Kylie is.

I am so grateful to be able to call Kylie my daughter. She is so much fun and so much help.

She is also so much like Jed, sometimes it is actually scary! Kylie has got one heck of a sense of humor. She thinks just about anything is funny. She will just bust up laughing and I wont have a clue what she is laughing at and sometimes I never find out.

Kylie is an amazing sister! Although she LOVES to torment her brother she takes very good care of him as well. This Christmas she held Steele in her lap and took turns opening presents with him to help him stay focused.

She is turning into a beautiful young woman before our eyes!

This is the desk Jed made her for her birthday this year! He did such a great job! This picture does not do it justice.

We also got her her own computer so she will be able to check her email whenever she wants.

Dad, Steele & I love you!

Such A Crack Up

This is Steele in all his glory!

He LOVES his shoes although he hates to keep them on. He comes to me with them all of the time and wants them on. My mom actually bought him these Converse high tops because he would not keep any other shoes on. He also LOVES my hair elastics! If he sees one he has to have it and it must be on his arm.

Hair Night

Wednesday night Kylie and I made brownies and had a hair night again. (This is alwasy my idea!) Kylie made a star on the top of my head. It was pretty cool then I think she was trying to see how may hair elastics she could put in my hair.

She is quite creative.

Jones Christmas Party

We had a great time at our Jones Christmas party this last Sunday! We played Crazy Bingo and had a good time stealing presents from everyone. We ate great food (of course!) and we sang Kareoke. Steele helped Jed sing.

Heiselt Family Christmas Party

Santa brought Steele this car.

Zoie & Santa - Zoie is SO funny! This year on the deer hunt with her grandma and grandpa she saved all of the deer legs and chased her cusins around scaring them. She wanted to take them home with her and someone even showed her that if you pull the tendons the hoof would move. She also wanted her grandma to make her some pants out of the hide... She acts just like Jake when he was younger. ;-)

My dad with his video camera

Steele didn't want to sit on Santa's lap.

Jed was thowing all of the kids onto the bean bags.

Steele has become VERY CHEESY in front of a camera.

We had a real fun time at our family Christmas party this year. We started renting "The Lodge @ Clemintine" for our family parties. It makes it nice and roomy. There are two large rooms one with two ovens, a kitchen sink, and a fridge with lots of big tables and one with a ton of HUGE bean bags, some rocking horses, and I think there is a video game system but the bean bags are by far the highlight.
