Merry Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas. It is always great to be together as a family.

Pre Christmas Snow Storm

We had a snow storm the week before Christmas. Jack loved the snow. I almost had a breakdown because I couldn't get the snow blower started. Cody came over and saved me...

Lauren was mesmerized by the Christmas lights.

Jack is very jealous of the babies. He was practically sitting on Meghan's head. I had trouble rotating this picture...

Christmas Pagent

Joseph had his first Christmas program...it was with his preschool class. He did really good and even sang a bit and danced. There were little girls pulling their dresses up over their heads and little boys and girls crying for their parents. We were very proud of Joseph for being such a good boy.
When the "angel" came onto the stage with Mary and Joseph, Jaden said "look nana, a butterfly".

After the program I took photo for Jenni's Christmas cards. The kids are such "hams" it was hard to get a good picture of both of them at the same time.

Santa....I like him!!

We had Thanksgiving at my sister Ang's house. Earlier in the day I had told Jaden that we would be going to see a movie about Santa Claus after we ate. Her response was I like him... (Santa Claus). She climbed up onto my dad's lap and proceeded to tell him what she wanted for Christmas.....ponies, care bears...and then she gave him a big kiss and hug. I think she thought he was Santa!

Varsity Jacket

Sorry I have been MIA...
Meghan received her letter jacket last week. We are very excited for her. I think that by having her name embroidered in cursive, and adding the hood...it makes it look more girlie than the plain letter jackets!
Congratulations sweet girl!!

Jingle Shells

I designed this card for our friends and family who live in Florida. I think it is pretty cute!! The pail is full of glittery ornaments. And of course Mr. Crab has googly eyes and his Santa hat on. I can't wait to put this one in the mail.

My First (and last) Tattoo

Travis and I went to a tattoo party Friday night at the house of one of our friends. We had lots of fun and both went home with tattoos. I have wanted one for along time. They say that once you get one, you will want more. I can honestly say that one is enough for me...Mine is small 1 1/2" wide and it took no more than 10 minutes to tattoo. My friend Shawn's tattoo took 3 hours and Travis's took a little over an hour. Travis thinks he wants one more... Like I say, one is enough for me.
