Natural History Museum

 On the 26th we went to Salt Lake with the Laraway's to the new Natural History Museum.

 It was neat to see all the dinosaur bones.  You see, the dinosaurs they got old and died.

 There were a lot of hands-on exhibits.

 This was neat!  An ant farm.  I liked watching the ants move through the tunnels.

 After the museum we went to Rubios.  Delicious.



Hawaii Shirts

Grandma and Grandpa went to Hawaii a few weeks ago.  They got everyone matching shirts.  Don't we look cute!

Christmas at Laraways

 We went to the Laraways after church on Christmas.  I was excited for everyone to get more presents.

 Mimi made a cover for my "construction tent" which is a cube made out of pvc pipe.  The cover has a door, window, trees, plants, and my favorite: a mailbox.



Christmas Morning at Rowley's

 Christmas was on a Sunday this year, so we had church at nine.  When we got up we hurried into our Sunday clothes.  I was really excited to open my present.s

 Mom and Dad got me a LeapPad.  But what I really loved was the rocket alarm clock they gave me.  When I opened it I got all emotional.  I have wanted an alarm clock for so long.  I gave Mom and Dad a huge hug.

 Jingle came in my stocking.

 My "Oh Yeah" dance some more.

Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve I set out some cookies for Santa.  I also put out some oats for the reindeer.  But I also decided they needed carrots.  I decided that I also needed a carrot.

We were downstairs playing when there was a knock at the door.....

.... it was Santa!  He came to visit again!

He brought me the game Hi-Ho-Cherry-o's.  I was very excited to see him.

We then set out our gifts into piles.  I was excited about that too.  I kept yelling, "Oh Yeah!  Oh Yeah! Go Nathan, go Nathan!"

We did a little program.  I told everyone about Baby Jesus.

I was very dramatic about it.  But I did a great job.

After Jillian and Brady were done playing the guitar and piano, I played a song for everyone.

Gingerbread Houses

 On the 24th we made gingerbread houses.  It is another fun tradition that we do!

 I always have fun sampling the candy.
