So click on this link and ENJOY!!! If this doesn't get you in the Christmas spirit I don't know what will. hahaha MERRY CHRISTMAS!

She was the smartest one of them all. With her fat little coat on. Yet she is the only one that came back with a runny nose.... go figure.

Sadee almost had mud in her eye. She was riding with Matt's dad and was loving it. Now every time he comes over she always asks to go riding.

Good times...... This is after the big storm this weekend 12/1/2007. Dad came out just to ride. He is CRAZY.

This is the latest pic that we have as a fam.... It is one year old. We need to get a new one but we are going to wait until the new baby gets here first. This picture is perfect expresion of everyone. Savannah is our little inocent sweet heart. Sadee is a little mischevious but once you get to know her she is like a teddy bear. Brik is our brick, he will do anything. Matt (Big Pimpin). Myself, princess......j/k

Here are THE BOYS!!!
Did you even know that there were bugs on this earth that looked just like a stick? Weird!

Sadee, Savannah, and their cousin Emma Jean!!! So Cute!

OK, I seriously think I have the GREATEST in-laws on the planet. Popsie (Matt's Dad) loves to take drives into the hills to build a fire and be in the outdoors. It's Awesome! Makes for good family memories. One of the Skousen traditions is to drive to Young the day after Thanksgiving and cut down Christmas trees. I have been able to participate for three years now and I love, love, love it. It's a good opportunity for Brik and his cousins to learn how to work in the outdoors. They were in charge of gathering the firewood. It was so fun to see these little bodies carrying huge branches. The harder they worked the more praise they got. It's a great experience for him. It took Matt and I forever to pick the tree we wanted. We finally saw one that had some potential and it ended up being perfect in our home. Yeah!

One of our favorite family activities is to take the quads and our dog Bingo out in the fields next to our house. This happens at least a couple times a week. Especially now that the weather is sooooooo nice!!! Brik rides like his Dad. He has no fear which scares me to death. YES, that is my little three year old riding the quad by herself.
