Ho Ho Holy Cow its been cold!!

Wow so most importantly I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and the New Year brings everyone happiness! I am glad to say we made it through the holidays. Its all a blur now looking back. It seems like one day it was Thanksgiving and we did a little shopping and Bam it was Christmas! The weather has been cold, so cold you don't even want to leave the house but hey that South Dakota for ya huh! But the sun is out today so I wont complain!

So let me see what has happened since I last posted... a lot I'm sure but this is what I remember. Josh found out on the 11Th of December that he made Tech Sergeant which is a pretty big deal. We are so happy and proud of him, he did allot of studying and its just nice to know all his hard work payed off. So with that happy news I was glad to pass my truck down ha ha, because honestly that is what he wanted. In the process I scored myself a pretty nice ride (this was also his idea). So now we have two perfectly running cars that both have reverse (funny story if you know what I'm talking about)!

Haley Rae has been busy with school and friends. She counted down the days till Christmas and more excited this year than I can remember her being in the past. She has lost two teeth in the past month and let me tell you she picks the best time to lose them. Both times it was after nine when she was already in bed and comes hauling up the stairs and is all excited and guess who never has cash in her wallet? That's right the Tooth Fairy! So I have learned to keep at least a couple dollar bills on me now! Those late night trips to the store have been pretty chilly in my Jammie's! She also got several inches cut off her hair about a week ago and has grown to love head bands! Who knew they would still be in style!

Brady is doing good as well. This is the first Christmas that he really enjoyed, I'm sure it has something to do with the fact that presents are now cool and fun to open. He is still on his super hero kick, I think we might have to buy another Iron Man DVD if he keeps watching it as much as he does. It is no joke the first and the last thing he wants to do everyday! Buzz Lightyear is pretty cool now too. He was given a bunch of presents this year and the theme seemed to be the more noise it made the better! He talking up a storm and sometimes the things he says amaze me. He is truly one of the sweetest kids ever.

I am super. Just trying to come up with the New Years Resolution. If anyone has an idea feel free to share. Other than that daunting task I've just been staying busy with the kids, I still look at them everyday and I just feel like I am the luckiest person! I also am looking forward to some warmer weather and I know I might have to wait a while but I will be waiting! Till next time everyone take care!

I'm going to put a video of the kids on here opening up one present the night before Christmas! Had to make sure they opened up the same present to avoid any hard feelings! Thanks Grandma for the Fuzzy I-Dogs! Also just Thanks in general to everyone for the gifts! Who doesn't like presents!!

Love

The Hampton's!!
