Holly Jolly Christmas Time

Christmas time this year was off,, it never really felt like Christmas and i never got the yeah it's Christmas feeling. Maybe it's because my husband was the grinch this year or scrooge as he put it, maybe its because we are still in limbo as to what we are doing and going but this year i didn't love Christmas or maybe its because i had all my shopping done by Dec. 5 and never got out the month of December.. Don't get me wrong i fully enjoyed Hadley and her love of it and how excited she was about every little thing from opening presents, giving gifts, santa cookies, reindeer food, and best of all her love of snow. So i really will just stop there rather then making this a downer post and just show you what fun we did have....

Papa Turned 57

WOW i didn't realize i was so behind... We sure have a great dad (most of the time) so we had to do it up big for his birthday... His birthday this year happened to fall on Thanksgiving so he has lots of family around to celebrate with him.I had the idea to "heart attack" him, so i asked that all of us kids write 57 reasons why we love him and then we hung all 399 hearts all over the house... he was shocked and still says its the best gift he ever got. it was really fun to watch him read and reacted to the hearts.. the grand kids were so excited to help put the up as well... Kyli also got him a very special gift....... a buffalo hat, he was in heaven and he proceeded to prance (who knew buffalo pranced) around the living room... it was a great day.. Love you dad and Papa

Do you think i he liked it?????

happy 57th birthday dad

Merry and Bright

Roberts Family Christmas Card

The Birthday Party....

Hadley is one spoiled little lady... She is very loved by both sides of family and they all came out to celebrate with us for her big birthday. We missed my mom because she was at home not feeling well... The lady needs to learn how to rest after big surgery's.... Hadley had been asking for a princess castle cake so i looked around and found one to make, it so didn't turn out the way it was suppose to, we lost the top tower and some of my decorating tips have gone missing but she told me she loved it anyways,,, actually she came up the stairs and looked at it and said " oh mom its perfect" so as long as she was happy it was fine. We had fun eating cake and opening presents with very one but missed all that couldn't come.. the next morning on her actual birthday she got her blueberry muffins and then we headed down to grandma and papa's for the day. That night she requested chick fila for her birthday dinner and we headed over and Casi, Taisyn, Kyli, and my mom joined us... she loved every second of her birthday and is already talking about next year:) she's a silly girl but we love her non the less...
