Christmas Eve we went 4 wheeling. How fun is that? I don't know what my deal is. I mean on holiday's I like to have 'traditions'. Well this year we had so many new 'traditions' I don't know if I will remember all of them to do next year. It seems as though anything we do around holidays, if it is fun I want to do it again around the same holiday next year and name it our 'tradition'. :) cheesy I know. But fun. I mean that is what I remember from when I was a kid is all of the 'traditions'. Some of them not even real traditions but non the less it was done around a holiday, it was fun, maybe we did it two years in a row....I shall name it a 'tradition'! Silly I know.
This year was perfect. We had not had much snow up until then. And one night we were watching 'A Christmas Story' as a family and the kids said that's not fair why is it always snowing? It is snowing everyday there. Well I think that goes to show, yes there is not much reality when my kids watch tv. They don't understand it is staged...? Oh well, Right after we watched that it seems the following week was Christmas and this year it Snowed almost EVERY DAY BETWEEN CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEARS!!! We.Loved.It. I love it so much and it was so snowy and cold we just hung out at home and only left when absolutely necessary. Yes, I know weird. As when I was growing up it was all about hustle and bustle. Gregg well he has taught me to definitely slow down, while I don't like to slow down all the time. It is nice every now and then.....sheesh what a ramble.
Back to the 4 wheeling. We went on Christmas eve and it was a blast. It was snowing and cold and fun! I had a blast flying around on the 4 wheeler and I think I just about scared the boys by jumping in the air. They seemed to hold on to my waist a little bit tighter after a few of those jumps! How much fun! I love that the dog comes with us too. He is hilarious. Oh, and one more thing....talk about a Christmas miracle for Jaxon. So it was probably the week before we went and it was cold but not snowing. So the boys wore their gloves of course. Well we happen to have a very forgetful boy who could loose just about anything. Well said boy lost ONE of his $60 gloves.....mind you this was his 3rd pair. (I keep praying one of these times it will kick in and he will be responsible so I keep giving in). Today we drove up to the same area we usually do and wouldn't you know it the ground was covered in snow. I was so angry about that lost glove I didn't know what to say/do. But as HIS miracle would have it we drove right over that glove and uncovered it from the snow and Gregg got out of the truck and found it. Seriously. What. Are. The. Odds? He was some lucky boy! Mom didn't kill him on Christmas Eve! :)
