Hello 2011
Goodbye 2010

Christmas Highlights

Love him.


One gift highlight was all of the grandkids getting their own digital cameras.  
What a hit!  
However, the nude photography sessions that quickly ensued between the boys 
quickly landed them all with a few rules for their cameras.  
Stinkers.


Not the best photo, but I love it.  Auntie J and Miss E.


Maddelyn and Elliott.  So, so fun to have them in town for Christmas.  We don't get to see sweet Madde enough.  Elliott adores her.  How could he not?



We hit the Charlie Brown House one night to take Madde to one of our little tradition spots.  


 Me, Ede, E, and Madde.



Dear Ede and Dave's Neighbors, 
Thank you for purchasing snow it your front yard for your children for Christmas.  Thank you for purchasing snow in your front yard for our children for Christmas.  You have outdone yourself!  Let's keep up the tradition next year, ehh?
Love
Craig and Carly and all of our family.

 Love them too.




 It was SERIOUSLY a treat.  Can you tell we live in SoCal?  E in his crocs barefoot.  Burrrr.


Love her!  Sweet K.


Mom, Craig and I.


Need we say anything?  The picture says it all.


E really wanted this bug factory.  It is really cool.....IF you have a patient kid.  E is pretty patient with the little thing- however, I get ancy.  It kind of bugs (no pun intended) me that they aren't ready a little faster- and once one is ready and it's squished- we still are waiting on the next one, and the next one, and the next one......


Love her too.



Uncle Spenny, Shelly and Mom.

Well, as much as I desire and try to use my camera- this is about it.  They aren't even that great- but a memory goes with each, I am grateful for that part.  
Christmas was a good memorable time.  Busy, busy but lovely and wonderful.
I have the best family.  That includes my own and my married into family.  I can't think of life without all of them!

Christmas 2010


This could sum up Christmas for us- look at that smile?  However, because I love my family that is far away most of the time, I shall be posting more.  

I am not a huge "New Years Resolutions" type of person.  I like to grow and change as I see fit throughout the year- but....I do plan to be a better blogger this year.  I seem to really bite it October -December every year.
