What more could you ask for? A little boy's dream. {Benton and Tobby}

Nutcracker

Nikelle performed with the Moscow Ballet. It was a wonderful performance. Next year I want Tori to audition and be apart of such a great experience.

Christmas Day.

Christmas morning we had to wake-up our kids. Garrett and I were more excited than they were. After all the toys and candy and clothes were opened Tori decided her favorite gift was the $1.00 can of "silly string." Alex loved her new Princess Collection of dolls and they go EVERYWHERE with her now. Benton was happy with a sucker in each hand and nothing more. Merry Christmas!

Christmas Sunday

I had these beautiful red skirts made for the girls to wear to church on Sunday (the Sunday before Christmas). Once all the kids were dressed and ready for church we piled into the truck and headed to the chapel. From the time Tori got out of the truck to the time she walked up to the stand to sing with the Primary (before the meeting even started), she managed to get a HUGE hole in her new skirt. As I was looking up at Tori from the congregation I see my beautiful 5 year old sitting on the front row of the chior seats with her finger jammed up her nose with one hand and her other hand holding UP her newly ripped skirt! What an image. We love you Tori!

Calling all Hatchs

Here are all the pictures that were taken at Thanksgiving. If you want them you can copy and paste them off of this post.

Santa Baby

The girls performed at the ward Christmas party. It was a HIT. Then Santa's "helper" made an appearance. Everyone had a blast.

Tori's First Grade School Christmas Program

Everything was in Spanish. Tori sang the Little Drummer Boy (in Spanish) and did AMAZING! They got lunch and hot chocolate afterwards for all the families. We are so proud of you Tori. You are growing up too fast.
