A Fun Filled December...

WE LOVE DECEMBER!!!!!! Our little boy gets one year older every December 6th to really kick off the holiday season!! Parx man is 3 years old ( I still have to do a birthday post... but ky has those pics). So this post is all about Christmas time with my sweet family.

We may not have the prettiest tree but it was cut down in the forest with love. This is a tradition we are hoping to keep forever!

Parx wrapped this present for Bridger... he did such a good job :)

Bridger 6 months old- first Christmas!

Dad got a giant pic of Erin Andrews... He has a mild obsession.

The boys got everything they asked for from Santa this year!! Parx really wanted a train table with a remote control train.

Part of the Fam! Missing ky, ty and the kiddos

Bridger got Peas in his stocking from Santa and didn't like them much!

My beautiful babies in their jammies Santa brought!

Santa came over and surprised us on Christmas Eve!! Parx absolutely LOVED it! He even brought presents in his big red bag!

The Johnston Family... Christmas 2011

We go and meet Santa every year at a State Farm office and they always have other fun things for the kids to do at all the other offices connected too!

Cute Boise State Pony

Both boys loved Santa this year!

We got to meet 2 of his reindeer

In the car after all the fun!

AUNT KY KY GOT US A FAMILY HELICOPTER RIDE FOR CHRISTMAS!!! IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PARX WANTS TO RIDE HELICOPTERS ALL THE TIME NOW.

THE JOHNSTON'S GOT FIRST PLACE IN THE GINGERBREAD MAKING CONTEST... TWICE!

CAN'T WAIT TO CONTINUE MAKING FUN HOLIDAY MEMORIES WITH MY FAMILY FOR YEARS AND YEARS TO COME!!! I LOVE THEM SOOOO MUCH AND AM SO BLESSED TO HAVE THEM IN MY LIFE... CHRISTMAS 2011 WAS AN ABSOLUTE BLAST!!!! SO THANKFUL THAT WE KNOW AND UNDERSTAND THE TRUE MEANING OF CHRISTMAS AND ARE ABLE TO TEACH OUR CHILDREN ABOUT OUR SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST!!

Happy Happy Halloween!!!!

We had so much fun this Halloween!! Parx was really into it and it was awesome to watch him have such a good time doing all the different festivities. These pics are in random order because moms computer is going to slow to change things around!

We started off the fall by going to the apple orchards and getting 50 lbs of apples and dehydrating them...


We went to the farms and had a blast on the trains, picking pumpkins, corn maze, swings, astro jumps, and soo much more!

Carved pumpkins at Grandma and Grandpa Johnston's house!!! Parx painted his and it looked great and he felt very proud everytime he opened the front door and saw his pumpkin.

random pic of Bridger that was supposed to go at the end... almost 5 months!

Scentsy trick-or-treat!

aunt ky ky the wicked witch!

we made cut out cookies with Parx friend Lawrence!

And of course Trunk-or-Treat!!

We have been boxing up stuff in our house to move and Parx found one box that is his very fav... he sits in it everytime he watches tv (of course its the ONE box that has something nasty growing on the side of it)

Brothers

Parx's little brother, Bridger Ty Johnston, was born June 26, 2011 at 12:13 am. Another LOOONNGGG labor for mom. Why do the doctors tell you that the second one will go sooo much faster than the first? I guess because for the average joe it does!!! NOT ME, it only gets my hopes up... it took me 18 hours to get from a 5 to a 10.. what is wrong with me???? My body blows when it comes to laboring but oh well a healthy baby boy was born and has already brought so much joy into our family. I wish i could say that Parx loved his brother and always wants to hold and kiss him, but that's just not the case with him haha. He ignores him and randomly wants to kiss him or hold him, but usually if he is interested in him at all its because he wants to jump over him, throw a blanket over his head or run a car down his face... its been quite the experience so far!! One day i'm sure they will be best friends but we'll have to wait awhile for that :) I love my cute cute sons!

These first 3 pics of Bridger at 4 months...

Right after he was born...

blessing day...

ITS A BOY!

Isn't he just the cutest thing?!?!
