Meet the new member of our family, his name is Bentley. He is a pure bred Beagle and he is 12 weeks old. Ben and I got him for the kids for Christmas. Ben drove almost 3 hours away to pick him up at the breeders on Christmas Eve. When Ben got home I had the kids go on a treasure hunt and this was the treasure and Bentley is a very sweet and mild mannered. He hasn't whined at all and has slept through the night. He is an outside dog but has a very warm and comfortable bed and dog igloo. The kids were beyond excited and he has taken many naps because the kids have exhausted him. It's been really fun. Then we had the Traditional Hansen Christmas Eve and had a candle lit dinner and followed that with our Christmas program. We skyped with Cory and my parents in Ohio for the program and it was very fun. What a Christmas Eve, love making memories.

So I was trying to not go crazy because my kids have been out of school since the 18th!!! I know!! So I met up with my friend/hairdresser and her kids and we went and saw Alvin and the Chipmunks on the 23rd. This is the first time Canyon has gone and seen a movie at the theater. He did really well, but I learned very quickly that if he doesn't run out of popcorn he sits the whole time. I think many moms had the same idea because the theater was packed but it was really fun.

See all the popcorn!!! He had fun

Ben had a great idea for family Home Evening, decorate a Gingerbread House. It was so fun, but the kids had to practice with the icing, it was a little difficult but they got a hang of it. Canyon had more fun eating the candy decorations than actually decorating. He did manage to finish a Christmas Tree though. It was a lot of fun.

I love this time of year and I love christmas music but most of all I love my Savior. Im so grateful for his birth and his perfect example. Most importantly his sacrifice for all who would live. I thought I would post pics of us decorating. Ben did a wonderful job on the lights on the house. He always does a great job.

Growing up, many times on Thanksgiving Day we would go bowling, so I thought why not start it with my family. This is Canyon's first time bowling and he loved it. Enjoy!!

Here are some pics from our "Skype" Thanksgiving dinner with Cory and his family. It was a lot of fun.

Nothing makes me love my husband more than seeing him clean up Thanksgiving Dinner, the love truly deepens to a whole other level!!
