Christmas Tree

Our Christmas tree was so pretty. John and Katie picked it out and decorated it and it looked beautiful. I need to take it down now but I wanted to try and take a couple pictures first. I probably didn't do these right, but they still are kind of pretty.

HO HO HO! HA HA HA!

This is one of my favorite little Christmas decorations. This year it was the first thing that Katie pulled out of the decoration box and she thought it was the funniest thing ever. I thought I better take some pictures of my Christmas stuff before I take it all down and box it up again!

Merry Christmas!!!

Happy Birthday to ME!

Had a great day with family and friends! The drive home sucked! I was not ready for this snow, but don't tell my Mom cause I told her the roads weren't that bad when I called as soon as I got home to tell her we made it safe and sound.

I had lunch with Tamera at the Cheesecake Factory today. It was so yummy and so nice to catch up with Tamera without our lovely children interrupting us every two minutes! Thanks Zane and Aunt Linda!

I also had a wonderful dinner and birthday party at my Mom and Dad's house tonight! Lots of good food, great presents and my awesome family. I will probably be posting some of my cool gifts in the days to come.

Christmas Pictures

I tried to take some pictures of the girls yesterday for Christmas cards. I know I'm more than a little late. Well Katie did great, with some promise of a candy reward. Charlotte didn't want the bow in her hair so she was crying in most of her pictures. I did manage to get a few ok ones of her after we took a little break.

Out of these two black and whites of Charlotte which one would you choose to print for the family for Christmas?

I really like this one of Katie. I tried to get a similar one of Charlotte but failed.

Thank You Secret Sister!

My secret sister had Tracy make me this yummy cake for my birthday! Don't worry my birthday is not till the 22nd so you still have 8 shopping days left! HA HA HA! I LOVE CAKE so this was the perfect present for me and I love the camera on the top!

MMMM Syrup!

Hmmm guess who got into the syrup? I just opened this bottle of syrup this morning.

Yep, Charlotte! She was so proud of herself too. I guess she did at least keep it, mostly, on the plates.

We're Back!

Here are a few shots from our trip to Maryland.

These are from a candy store/fruit market in Oakland. Every kind of candy you can imagine.

This is the Swanton "Mall". We had pizza for dinner one night from there and it was really good.
