Daddy's Hand

Okay so I just had to write a little post to give huge props to my husband. I am continually impressed with him in so many aspects of his life, but this one takes the cake. So I was walking in the door from doing a little birthday shopping when I come in bags in hand to find my two kids on the couch playing, with a bag of goldfish completely dumped out all over the couch, and Brett is standing there with the vacuum ready to clean it up and just then...I scream, "Brett...Jozalyn," pointing at her as she was on her way down backwards off of the couch. Brett, with his catlike reflexes jumps, and does a sort of dive roll thing and catches the back of her head with his hand (as an important side note she was on the opposite end of the couch). She is safe, only by the good grace of Daddy's hand. While I am still standing there in shock, and then Brax (who has been obsessively watching Kung Fu Panda) says, "Wow Dad that was some awesome Kung Fu."
We are so lucky to have such a great Daddy! Thanks for saving the day Kung Fu Panda.

Christmas morning, oranges in AZ and Ice skating

The whole Hulet clan (minus the working girl Christina) went ice skating in Arizona (from front Christian, Nicole, Spencer, Jill Avery, Brax, Ben, Stephanie, and Brett and I in the back)! Of course Brett's Mom and Dad are taking the photo, because they were watching Joz and Logan. It was great fun, Joz really liked it, but Brax was another story.

Our two kiddos on Christmas morn were so cute in their matching pj's and after much anticipation the presents were opened and played with, we all enjoyed our gifts and festivities. Jozalyn also discoverd the piano and so we now have a future pianist in our family.

Also, one of the great things about AZ is that there is a park just a bit from Brett's folks house so we always walk there often it seems, but right from the orange tree come the sweetest oranges that we love to pick! You can see both kids enjoy this treat!

Thanks for a great time and it was so fun to see everyone we love and miss you all!

The Polar Express

We road the Polar Express complete with snow in Arizona! It was magical, we road for about a hour on an authetic 1800's train complete with hot chocolate and cookies served by Santa's elf! As we road the story of the Polar Express was read from a book and over the speaker system while the employees roamed up and down the isles showing the kids the pictures. We arrived at the north pole and on the way back to the train station the one and only Santa made his appearance on each train car. He came to our car and Brax was a little freaked, but then he handed each child a bell from his sleigh! It was so great! We then stayed in Flagstaff and went back to Phoenix the next day! A memory we will not forget.

The best for 2009!

Wishing you the very best for 2009! We have had quite the 2008...our baby girl came,(crawled, walked and talked), we got another vehicle, both land and water, we traveled too many places to mention individually, Braxton started preschool and got pottie trained, Brett worked hard as ever and so did I! I love my family more and more with each day and with each year, so hats off and cheers to them! This of course is a short summary. Wishing you a prosperous new year, I won't even start with the new years resolutions, again too many to mention, ha, ha!

Merry Christmas!

We are really enjoying our time in the sunshine with family this Christmas. We got to ride the Polar Express to the North Pole and it was truly magical, Santa even gave both Brax and Joz a special sleigh bell! We also went ice skating which was great fun, although it has been awhile since I was on skates! The entire Hulet Family is together, and it is so much fun! Brax and his little cousin buddy, are the cutest and Joz also has a cousin the same age! Anyway, I just wanted to drop a quick line to wish everyone the very merriest Christmas!

Just some cuties home from church.

I have not posted since b-friday, sorry! Here are just some random pictures home from church. This holiday season we are busy as usual, but full of holiday joy and true spirit of the reason for the season. We are making goals and plans for both ourselves and for our family for the new year! We wish you all a very Merry Christmas and joyous holiday season filled with love and laughter! oh and I hope Santa brings you everything on your list...and then some!

BLACK FRIDAY!

Our black friday was so much fun! Brett and I camped out at Best Buy and we brought along Brax for some of the time, he had a blast! We had a tent set up and sleeping bags and of course a propane heater and dvd player. Everybody else was sitting in lawn chairs freezing as the snow fell on them! We were nice and toasty. We got everything and more that we wanted and got many of our family members taken care of as well. Then we hit Target and Walmart. It was crazy! Then I hear about 3 people that were killed and several injured, I cannot imagine wanting something that bad to hurt another person. Anywho, it was a great and successful b-friday!
