Our Yearly Christmas Card

MERRY CHRISTMAS

We must have been on Santa's NICE list because he
stopped by last night.




YAY! Ben got a Nintendo DSi---just what he wanted.



And Santa brought Katelyn the Bitty Twins---just what she wanted.


Santa contributed to Katelyn's Harry Potter obsession.

Ben received the 2009 Hess Truck. He's been getting one since

his 1st Christmas.

Jessica gets a ride on Comet.

THANKS SANTA!!!

Yum---Paul's Turkey masterpiece--all 27 pounds of it.

Santa's Coming Tonight

It's Christmas Eve and the kids have important
business before bed. They sprinkled the driveway
with special reindeer food...

...and most importantly they left milk and some of their

special sugar cookies for Santa.

and a few carrots for the reindeer.

I have a feeling it's going to be an early morning.

It's beginning to SMELL a lot like Christmas

December 23, 2009

The kids got out early today for the Christmas break.
We took advantage of the extra time to decorate
Christmas sugar cookies. Ben and Katelyn always
look forward to this activity every year and they do
a fabulous job frosting, sprinkling, and icing the afternoon
away.

Aren't they pretty---almost to pretty to eat.

Winter !!!

December 7, 2009

Winter arrives. The kids couldn't wait to get the snow gear
on and enjoy some fun in the snow.
