 I got an awesome snugee AND a NIKON camera! (SO excited!)

 New kitty's.

 Briggs new tractor seat swing!

This is our BARRON FAMILY 2011 T-Shirts that I designed.  We do a new T-Shirt for the family every year.  Be prepared to see us in these awesome babies in the coming year.  I LOVE how they turned out!

Yep, we did it too.

 Seems to be a "must do" these days in Christmas entertainment, building ginger bread houses.  It was fun, the kids enjoyed themselves.

 Quincey

 Boston

 Quincey's masterpiece.

 Piper's masterpiece.

Briggs's masterpiece.

 Boston's masterpiece.

It WORKS!

 Boston played dead and this bear totally left him alone.

 Piper went for the making friends approach.

 OK fine, we are at Bass Pro.  We took the kids there to see Santa Clause and ride the carousel while Daddy talked to people about guns. =)  It is a fun place to visit during Christmas time.  Lots to see and do.

 Piper enjoying her ride.

Boston looking very embarrassed that he is even ON this ride and trying to act bored.....Hahaha.....

Family Ice Skating

 Quincey and her buds.

 Briggs did GREAT!  I was SO proud.

 Daddy is pretty much a maniac on the ice. =)

 Quincey and one of her bestest buddies Jamie.

 Piperdee.

Sarger did great as well.  Our whole family can ice skate!  Yeee Hoooooo.........

We invited the whole ward to join us at the rink and 7 families were represented.  I think we might make this a tradition.  It was great fun.

My Grown Up Daughter

 BEFORE......

.............AND AFTER!!!!  My girl got her braces off.  She looks gorgeous!

Movie Night!

 We always do a couple movie nights during the Christmas season.  This night we watched "A Christmas Story".  Most of our kids had not seen that movie.  I made lots of orderves and finger foods for the party.  It was great.  We also watched the movie,"Christmas Cottage" another evening.  The trailer for it looked WONDERFUL, so I bought it, but it turned out to be LAMOOOOO.  Anyway, I took a shot and we had lots of goodies while we endured it.  These are the best nights, everyone get cozy and lets pig out while we watch a movie!

Love this movie! SO funny.

Boston's Big Night!

 The fifth grade did a Christmas musical and Boston played a mouse.  It has been known in our family that Boston refuses to sing.  As much as Daddy tries to make him sing, he tries hard not to move his lips. Ironically enough, he SWARES that he sang through the whole musical, but his mouth was covered by his mouse nose.  We didn't see it at all. SURE BOS SURE!!!!! Isn't that just CONVENIENT that you HAPPENED to play the MOUSE............Hahahahahaha......... I'm sure there was opera going on inside that nose of yours. =D

A Hilarious Picture (to me anyway)

Quincey and I were teasing Daddy and laughing at him while filming the Nativity movie and I snapped this picture.  I got it right at the hight of flaring nostrils! Hahahaha........He makes me laugh so hard.  I love and adore him too. =D

As Sarger Ate His Orange......

 He made a discovery........

"Look Mommy! TEXAS!"  I thought it was funny. =D
