Winter Fun

Some memorable moments so far this winter season ....

Mama and Jackson had some fun spelling family names with Scrabble tiles.

Addie lounging in her Christmas attire.

Daddy and Jackson pose with the Smile Center's community tree. Just a few years ago, this tree was in rough shape.  Now it has a place of honor on Main Street.

'Rock star' Jackson and princess Karlee. 

Ronnie and Jackson having a blast at the Matthews Christmas get-together.

Addie sports one of her big brother's old onesies.  Big Sky Smile Center still does not endorse the 'teeth are overrated' philosophy. 

Santa's reindeer visited Miles City!

Birthday Bash

Our sweet four-year-old had the ultimate birthday party with lots of friends and fun. We are thankful for all our friends who braved the snow to help us celebrate!

Avengers Assemble! The invite.

The cake! Mama, Daddy, and Jackson had some fun making this creation. 

Jackson had asked for a cake that looks like Captain America's shield. I think we pulled it off.

Jackson's wish had already come true ... he has some incredible family and pals who love him!

Gotta love how kids help each other open presents ... The more, the merrier!

YUM

The banner ... Mama changes the number each year. Before we know it, it'll say 'Jackson is 37' ... !

Jackson is HOW old?!

Jackson turned FOUR on December 6th ... my, what a big boy! He had asked for a red robot for his birthday and got one (because he is such a good boy) ... the robot pal went with him to school as his show and tell. Jackson's birthday bash is set for Saturday ... so, more to come!

"Happy Birthday to Me!"

Opening a card from Uncle Bret ... it was full of stickers, which he promptly applied to  Mama, Daddy, and Addie. 

Dream Lite from Nana and Granddaddy! Just what he asked for  :)

Mama and Daddy took our little buddy to DQ for an ice cream treat. 

Little Mooo and Big MOOOooooo!

Birthday feast with Bubah and Zeider! Five star meal at McD's.

Mama and Jackson made Fruity Pebbles treats for his friends at school and daycare. They were a big hit!

A Post from Addie

Thank you for the cute Christmas outfits, Nana and Granddaddy! I'm getting chubby, so I had to wear this one before I grow out of it! ~ Adelyn

I'm the best gift of all!

All ready for my first Christmas.

Look at me pick my head up!

I love the Christmas tree lights :)

Daddy's HOW Old?!

Daddy Matthews turned 35 on Tuesday the 4th!

Spending some quality time with his little girl.

Making fajitas with the duck, goose, and pheasant from his hunting expedition!

Annual eclair ... yes, made with love by Mama :)

Birthday Week!

It's birthday week ... Granddaddy on December 3rd, Daddy on December 4th, and Jackson on December 6th. Mama's been baking up a storm!
