The Ebmeyer Family
Hi. We're the Ebmeyers. We love to swim, swing at the park, go for walks, ride our bikes, play at the beach, read books, dance, and really just be together. The only thing better than this is sharing it with friends. In the words of Jack Johnson, "It's always better when we're together".

New Year's Eve 2013

 Our traditional game of "Penny in the Flour". Brock was at a Stake Dance this year so it was just the three of us, since the babies were in bed. The kids look forward to it every year even though they think it tastes so yucky! Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas 2013! Our first ever Christmas morning in our own home!


 Christmas Eve started off with a delicious turkey dinner. Actually, It started off with me throwing my cell phone away. Brock took the big kids with him to do some last minute Christmas shopping and I decided I would organize and de-clutter the old kids toys...throw them out to make room for the new ones about to come the next day. Well, later that day when I was asking if anyone had seen my phone....we realized through the tracking device on my phone that it was somewhere in the neighborhood. Brock thought maybe I left it on top of the mailbox and I knew I didn't leave it there so then as we are hearing the garbage man in the background he said could you have thrown in away?....Then in dawned on me, yes. I could have, and I did. In all my loads to the garbage, throwing old clothes and toys and garbage out, I threw my phone out too. I was so bugged!! So off Brock goes 30 minutes before we are about to have our Christmas dinner to get me a new phone....Love that husband of mine! Always taking care of me. 
After dinner we read a Christmas story and then the kids opened one gift, new PJs!

 For one of our advent calendar events we made reindeer food. Here the kids are sprinkling the food all around so that Santa will be able to find our house better!



  Before the big kids came down Scout was helping Daddy set up the camera Christmas morning.

 The babies first Christmas!





 Christmas morning! Does it get any better than this?!! Look at these happy faces! The only thing better than being a kid on Christmas morning is having your own children and seeing the joy in their faces!



 Reagan spotted the key board that Santa brought them!
