On the observation of New Year's day we headed up to Hardware Ranch with Kennedy, my parents, and Blake's cousin's family.  It was a fun day, althought there were not many elk wintering at the ranch.  Winter wasn't very hard as you can tell from the hills being bare.

My "beautiful princess".

Kennedy went around with her crown singing a song she made up

called "Beautiful Princess."  I have some video it is pretty cute.  

Kennedy had a sleep over at grandma's and wanted to do her hair.  This is the result.

Baby Stoker Update:  Baby is developing on target.  Making great strides.  A happy healthy girl.

For family home evening with Blake's family his brother Kevin bought gingerbread for all the nieces and nephews.  All of the dads went downstairs to help the kids make the gingerbread houses. Blake make some unique building decisions, but Kennedy LOVED it.

So for Christmas I work at Sportsman's to help for the busy hours.  Kennedy got up after I left for work.  She has these cute puppets well she decided to make them slippers.  She is too funny. 

It was Blake's family year to spend time with them on Christmas Eve.  We had a small dinner and then the great grandkids played games and re-inacted the navtivity.

We decided to head to downtown Ogden to their Christmas Village.  It was nice.  Not to busy, but still the holiday spirit.

Looks so innocent

Kennedy is small enough she could fit in these house.  It would be like a life size doll house.

Kennedy got a cute apron, so we made

some cookies to try it out.  She loves it.

Baby Stoker Update:  The doctor has confirmed we are having a GIRL.  I have learned that God gives you want you NEED, not what you want.  Baby Stoker has a pretty cute nose.  Not  quite the cheeks Kennedy had.  She has her own little cute look.
