Thats a wrap for 2010

well its been quite a year for the Hoys family. Top 3 events

1. Adding Zack to our lives

2. Buying a house

3. getting out of credit card debt!

Here are some pictures from our Christmas celebration.

Jeremy has been Santa for a family before we starting dating. Then when I came along I got a Mrs Claus outfit. Well this year we saw a baby Santa suit that we just had to get for Zack. We didn't end up going to the family that we usually go to because we moved north from then but still took some cute pictures of Zack.

My family and I found out that we all had the same glasses and we didn't even know it. So Nerdy!

Zack's playdate with Owen

We have had a very eventful month. We are incredible happy.

You're the one that I want!

Zack had his first halloween. He is at a fun age where I can do whatever I want to him and he doesn't care. I couldn't get enough pictures of him. He was so cute!!

Every since he was born his hair has been perfect to be a little grease lightening. My mom made him a black jacket and then found the perfect glasses to make the costume.

At the last second I decide to dress all in black to be Sandy and have Jeremy be Tom the jock. No one really got that we were in costume mainly because Zack was so cute.

The camera loves Zack and frankly so do we!

Zack is his mom's boy

Zack for sure got one gene from me.

I still have to use books so I can get taller!

Zack hangs out with Great Grandma Yo

We went over to see my grandma and my cousins son came over too. They are her first two great grandchildren. Zack was first and let Lucca know who was older and bigger.

I love Zacks face here after we pulled him off of Lucca, so innocent.

We are excited when these guys get older and are able to play with eachother.

A trip to Bates Nut Farm

We took Zack to Bates Nut Farm. It was a lot of fun. Jeremy help Zack feed the goats. Except one of the goats decided to lick Zacks leg. We have a video of it but it didn't capture how funny it was.

We then took him on a ride around the farm. He loved the ride. This picture below is my favorite of Zack and Jeremy.

We then let him see the pumpkin patch and crawl over the pumpkins. Our main reason to go was to get some cute pictures of Zack and I think we accomplished it.

Disneyland with Zack

We took Zack to Disneyland this weekend. We were a little nervous because we weren't sure how he would take the long day. He loved it!! We mainly saw shows but did take him on Pirates of Caribbean. He got a little scared at one spot but was fine the rest of the time. We even got a picture with Mickey. I can't wait for Zack to see this when he gets older. He'll ask me if I will take him and then I will show him that I already did!

The new show World of Color was amazing and of course all the other shows were great as well. The one crazy thing that happen was on the ride California Screamin. The ride got stuck at one of its highest points and had to evacuate all the riders. But good old Disney fixed the problem and the ride was up and moving a couple of hours later.

Zack is laughing

Zack has been giving us little signs of laughing but last night it was for real. He is so much fun! I hope we like our other kids as much as we like him.

whats been up with the Hoys

Things are going great with our family. Zack is almost 3 months old and learning new tricks everyday. Yesterday he rolled over for the first time. He has been talking and smiling a ton and we just love him. Last sunday we finally blessed him in church. It was such a wonderful day. Jeremy's blessing was so beautiful and I was lucky to be sitting next to my brother and my parents.
Jeremy is working hard at work so I don't have to go back to work. I really appreciate his dedication to our family.

I am have been trying to become more motherly and wifely. My goal everyday is to keep my house clean and have a nice meal planned for my husband. I am attempting to bake. I have made a couple of breads and cheesecake. Once I get a couple more treats under my belt I think I am going to pull out the sewing machine and learn what its purpose is.

Other then that we are looking forward to possible being in a house of our own in the near future. We are a happy clan that is loving life!

Swaddling Works

We wanted to see how Zack feels when he gets swaddled. So I swaddled Jeremy. I also wanted to see if he could get out.

My Boys

I am really lucky to have such wonderful men in my life. My husband who is all that I can ask for in a companion. He is loving, supportive, funn and spiritual. And then there is my son who is fun to watch as he discovers this world. He smiles at me with his whole face and I can't help but to be happy.

Zack is watching tv now

We started him young. We figure he is ready to see what the world has to offer.
