This was the best picture I could get of the girls before church on Sunday! I was so excited to see Kiley sing with the Primary kids in Sacrament meeting. Her primary president walked her up to the stand and you could barely see her little head over the wooden divider. I was standing up with Bryn and all the sudden I see Kiley's face crumble into tears. John ran up there and grabbed her. We had no idea what was wrong! Turns out she was just upset because she wanted John to take her up to the stand. And that is how we have been ringing in her 5th year- she is so sensitive and cries at the drop of a hat! She got over it and then in Primary she got upset over the video they were showing in Sharing Time. It was pretty upsetting, though. It was about the Savior's birth and it showed what happened after with King Herod's decree to kill all the infant babies. Why the heck would you put that in an animated movie for kids?? So, Kiley's sensitivity paid off in that case because the video was quickly shut off.
We stayed in Tallahassee for Christmas and Santa brought a big haul! Kiley was most excited about her new Angry Bird Star Wars toys. Bryn was excited about the paper.
The day after Christmas, we made the looooong trek to Huntsville, Al to see my parent's new house. It was freezing! Bryn hated the cold and her new jacket, but we tried to get out and see the sights. We went to a great Botanical Garden, but everything was dead (imagine that!) It is probably gorgeous in the spring! We did get some snow flurries while we were there, which was kind of neat!
Kiley's favorite thing to do was fishing with Bubba. She got casting down! Even though it was freezing cold, that is where she wanted to be!
We rang in the new year by staying up way too late trying to finish a puzzle my sister gave to John. The next day we got up early to make the long drive back to Tallahassee. I doubt we will be going back anytime soon! The drive was pretty bad and the girls did not like it one bit.
We are excited to see what 2013 has in store for us! There are some pretty exciting things that I am hoping pan out and if they do, it will be a doozy of a year! Happy New Year!

and Bryn was excited about the paper! hahahaha I died.
Your girls are so cute! We were freezing and miserable in Charlotte too. Man, the FL temps are so inviting in the winter, but I am miserable during the summer. Can't have my cake and eat it toO!!!
Thank goodness for Kiley crying during the movie! I try to shield my kids from depressing information, but they hear that kind of stuff at church! Is Bryn walking? Cute pic of Bryn and Kiley together by the tree! Now I am super curious about what you have cooking for the new year....
