Hobbit feet

Say what?

Stephen was out at church

For something, I don't remember what.

He came in kinda flustered kinda in shock kinda I don't have a word for it.

Then he started telling me about his ride home.

It went something like this:

He was driving home when suddenly a humongous pine tree fell into the road. Like a 100 feet in front of him.

No one was cutting it.

There was no wind. 

It wasn't raining

There wasn't anyone outside or anything.

The tree just fell.

BOOM

Of course when he told me, I was thinking it couldn't have been that big.

So, we all jumped in the car to check it out.

This is across two full lanes and most of a third.

We are so thankful Daddy wasn't hurt!

Primary? Already?

Yikes! That's right Hannah

You have to sit still

You precious little thing

We love you! Have fun with the big kids!

Christmas!!!

We are ready for you

Christmas has arrived!

The stall, to admire the loot!

The walk right past your stuff

The my sister got cool stuff

Wait?!?! What? I got cool stuff too?

A ball!!!

A giraffe too? Awesome!

Wow! My sister got cool stuff!

The girls really racked up this year! Check out the surprise gift from Santa in the back. (It's a trampoline)

But of course, this was the best gift of all from Santa. Headboard! BOOM!

We had a wonderful Christmas!

Trying to get pictures is like pulling teeth

All I want ALL I WANT

Is a decent picture of my children in front of the Christmas tree.

Gosh darn it! Please! Next year Mommies Christmas wish is to have a picture of my family in front of the Christmas tree!

Christmas Eve

I love this picture! It's awesome

Santa came on Christmas Eve for a quick visit. Hannah was thrilled, Sarah not so much. We are trying to establish what our traditions are. This year the girls watched "how the Grinch stole Christmas", we sprinkled reindeer food on our lawn, read the Christmas story from the scriptures and read "Twas the night before Christmas" I think we did something else but I can't remember. We did have a wonderful time. We wish you a very Merry Christmas!

We love to ice skate

We love to play like we are ice skating. We roll back our rug and put on our socks and play classical music and sing "I love to ice skate, ice skate, ice skate!" Record hit quality right there! Well, recently added to her "ice skates"

If you can't tell Hannah shoved candles down her sock and "laced" up her shoes.
