The Christmas Season - Part II


We went to Edaville Railroad, and saw the lights


and rode the train



and the rides



and had further discussions with Santa



At home, we put up the tree


and waited for the presents



We set the table and waited for friends



We studied the nativity and waited for the baby



Then FINALLY after all the waiting. . .


The presents arrived



Friends arrived (bringing presents of course!)



and more friends arrived (Griffin set up this shot!)








And the baby arrived in the manger. . . the gift that started it all!

Feeling Thankful



We had many things to be thankful for on Thanksgiving 2011



Pretty dresses . . .



busy hands . . .



and Gracie's new haircut!



That is correct . . . at nearly 3 years old, Gracie had her first haircut!



Awww!
