Santa pops in on the Wright kids!

Payson was a little scared of santa!

Kassidy was I think outgrowing Santa's lap!
Parker wasn't afraid of telling santa what he wanted!
And Brooklyn liked his beard! She wouldn't let go!
And Chandler had to be coaxed to sit on Santa's lap. Santa had to know what to bring him!


This year Santa came to the Wright home a few days early to check to see is they were being good and to take their lists. It was fun to have Santa come.

Here is a recent family picture in front of our Christmas Tree. This Christmas was so nice. We concentrated more on giving to others. Our Ward adopted 6 families in the community that needed help this year. Some people donated money and others food, and others donated their time shopping and delivering the presents. Sister Wilson, & Erick and I headed up the project and we could see all the neat things that people did. Our kids wrapped all the presents for our Family and they were so excited to be able to serve another family!

I need to catch up on blogs. Life has been so busy. This is a picture of our Christmas Dinner. Every Year Erick and I and the kids eat a nice candle lit dinner around Christmas time. We eat on china and listen to really pretty Christmas music, and we try to have a few lessons on manners too. The kids and Erick and I really enjoy the evening together!

This is my baby chandler - don't know how it got at the top!

I tag Judy and anyone else who wants to!

The Wright Family got to go to Disney Land This past week. It was a blast! Erick had a bad cold at the beginning of the week but by thurs and friday he was feeling better. parker and kassidy were my ride parteners. I even talked Kassidy and Parker into riding the California scream. It is a fast roller coaster that even goes upside down. Chandler is afraid of heights but we got him to ride a cute little roller coaster in Toon Town. He rode it about 10 times or so. It was so much fun to be at Disney land it really is Magical!

Erick and I took the kids over to Snow Flake to the pumpkin patch and the corn maze. The kids were so excited to pick out their own pumpkin. We were glad that Jaxten got go with us too. After the Pumpkin Patch we went to eat at mom's favorite restaurant Eva's. It was a wonderful evening together.

I am kind of behind so I will start with Halloween. Erick and I went to an adult Halloween party. Couples come dressed up, and we bring treats and play games. Glenna Christianson? sp? and her sister Amy are the hosts of the party. It was so much fun! Thanks Glenna and Amy. Erick and I dressed up as farmers and Brooklyn was our Pea Pod. Erick and I arn't really into the dressing up thing so I was trying to think up costumes that didn't involve to much work or embarrassment. Rachel bought the Ann Geddes costume for Payson a couple of years ago and the kids got it out and was trying it on Brooklyn, so I thought well brooklyn has to go so we should do the family matching thing and came up with the idea of FARMERS!

Kassidy's new do!

Kassidy got her hair cut on Wednesday. It makes her look so grown up. I'm not ready for that. kassidy is such a great help and a good daughter. she is doing woderful in school this year. She plays the piano so beautifully and I was watching her at dance the other day and she is so beautiful. kassidy's dance teacher took lessons from the famous Cambell's dance studio! does Cassie Morris ring a bell to any one? I just noticed my long lost friend posted a comment on one of my posts. Janice Anway is that you? Leave me your blog address

Who are all these kids and why are they calling me mom?

I am not old enough to have a Jr high daughter nor a 9, 6, 3 and a 2 month old. Here are some updated pictures of my kids. Kassidy got her hair cut yesterday and it looks really cute. I will have to take a picture and post it later. These pictures were taken at Parkers birthday. He got one of those Nerf Guns. The kids had a blast shooting each other. We might get more so the whole family could join in.

Board on the couch?

Well its about time I updated my blog. I just haven't had time too. School started and it seems that its a race between the time the kids get home from school and bedtime to get all the things we need to get done. Homework, Piano practicing, Dance lessons, Scouts, Showers, Dinner, baby feedings, Diaper Changing plus all the Relief Society Activities and meeting and Bishopric stuff also. This last weekend we went to Safford to visit Erick's family and we stopped by and visited our good friends Jewel and Jason and their family. Jewel and I were laughing because when we first met we had Kassidy and Emma and we were both pregnant with our second babies Parker and Wyatt. Jewel would come over to visit and we would sit on the couch so board, we were so board that we couldn't wait for Erick to come home for lunch so we would have some dishes to wash. We laughed because life has really changed. Jewel four kids later and me 5 kids later. Oh the good ol days. But I guess I wouldn't trade it though. It was so much fun seeing them again. It has been awhile but it was just like it used to be.
