Cline family dinner

 

Last night the adults in the Cline family got together and went out to dinner.  Steven was in town, it was fun to see him.

 We hadn't seen Jenny and Eric for a long time so it was great to get to visit with them.

Sledding at Mountain Dell Golf course

It has been so much fun having Jamie and Jordan at our house for the Holidays!

We were able to go with them to the SLC temple on Thursday.  When we got into the chapel waiting room, there were Skyler and Kara, so we got to go on a session with them.  

 Jordan REALLY wanted to go sledding while he was here, so he arranged a trip to Mountain Dell golf course, and Jamie and his girls, and Krista, Matt and their girls were able to join us.  (Josh and his girls were at a family activity with Merijane's family)  Here's Jamie, Jordan and Hailey going down the hill.

After sledding, we went to Krista's house and helped her take down her decorations.  Now she's already for baby Sophie to come tomorrow!!!  We can't wait to meet her.

Merry Christmas 2012

I have had so much fun preparing for Christmas this year!  I haven't sewn as much as I did this year for a long time.  I made 6 nighties for our girls, 2 little sleepers for the babies and a blanket for little Sophie (Krista's baby who should be here in the next week)  Then I made PJ pants to match for all the moms.  They all turned out pretty cute!!!

We found these Our Generation dolls for the 6 girls and I had fun finding outfits, coats, and making nighties for them too.  The baby girls got Madam Alexandar Huggums dolls. 

I think these little fur coats were my favorite thing I got for the dolls!

On Christmas we had ALL our kids, Jamie and Jordan arrived on Christmas Eve, all the Great Grandparents and Lani, Jeff, Jen and Jen's parents over for lunch and they stayed for the wild present opening festivities.

 There were presents EVERYWHERE!!!!

The girls were so excited with their dolls, (I found glasses for the girls with glasses)

Jordan loved holding Kelsi, he's practicing for July when he gets to hold his own baby!

Jamie in her new Christmas jammies.  We got their baby a puppy and bought little boy jammies, (they find out in a month if it's a girl or boy, but I just thought it would be fun to buy boy clothes, even though it's probably a girl)

Our missionaries joined the chaos.

Here they are in their new jammies like we got for all our boys. 

More presents and some of the girls modeling their nighties.

Here's all the big girls piled in bed in their nighties with their dolls

It was another GREAT Christmas, we are so blessed to have our family close by.  

Merry Christmas!!!!

A sleepover with 3 Three year olds!!!

Last weekend we had Katie, Aida and Abbie for a sleepover.  We have had all 3 of their big sisters several times, but have never had the 3 three year old together.  It was so much fun.  We went out to dinner and played at the playground for about an hour.  When we came home we had a "Dark Party" dancing to Christmas music with the lights out and glow sticks.  (my flash made it look like there were lights, but it was really DARK!)  They loved it!!!

They were exhausted, so they were all 3 asleep before 10:00, which is a miracle with 3 little girls in the same room.  The next morning they got up early and made breakfast for the missionaries.  They cut the biscuits in half.

Then had to dip and flip them in the buttery, sugary, cinnamon mixture.

They made juice and we had Christmas Crunch cereal 

So yummy!  They were so nice they get to come again sometime soon!
