Christmas ECT!

I have been bad at posting on here. The past 2 weeks I have been working over 40 hours at work. I have been trying to keep up on the house and the kids. The kids had a fun time with Christmas. They were all super excited to open there gifts. We started having them open them one at a time. I got away with buying wrapping paper that was dual sided so I used one side for the gifts from me and Issac and the other one from Santa. It was so fun to see them get so excited for Santa to come. Lizzys teacher told her class that if you are super quiet then you will be able to hear Santa's slay bells. When she woke up in the morning she told me that she didn't hear them. I told her that she must have went to sleep super fast and that is why she didn't hear them. We were lucky we got to sleep in a little. Alex was up at 6:30, but we made him come and lay in our bed until 7:00 then we let him wake up the girls. He was glad to be able to wake them up. He likes to do that every day. We got the kids a thing called a dream light. It is a stuffed animal made by pillow pets and on the top it has a big plastic thing that light up your room with stars and a shape of the animal that they have. All the kids say that they are afraid of the dark so this has helped out a lot. Me being in primary knew that we would be studing the Doctrin and Covenants this year and I can't belive that Alex will be in senior primary so I knew that he needed to have one so I bought him a Book of Mormon/Doctrin and Covenants/Pearl of Great Price and had his full name put on it. He really liked it. It is hard to belive that he will be getting baptized this year that he is turing 8 in September. It just blows my mind. We got the girls a Doctrin and Covenants reader and a New Testament reader. These are books with photos and easy to read stories. The kids like them because they can read them to me. Issac and I have been making more an effort to read our Book Of Mormon every morning. We read 1-2 chapters each morning before Issac leaves for work. speaking of Issac's work he officially got hiried on with his companie. We will be able to get insurance in March I am so stoked I can go and get some new glasses. It has been about 2 years and I know that my prescription has changed. I will be looking for another eye dr. however because I do not like the other dr that we have been going too. We will also be able to get Issac into a dr. to see what is wrong with his shoulder. He has constant pain and feels like the bones are rubbing up against one another. He is still training for the St. George Marathon. I am so proud of him for doing this. He is very strong and will succed.
