A Visit With The Chris'


My sister Christina and her hubby Chris were just here for a visit with their two children, Emma and Chloe. We really enjoyed spending time with them and I loved watching Noah and Emma have a blast playing together. It puts joy in my heart to see two cousins laugh and have so much fun together. Tonight we look forward to the arrival of Doug's brother Donny and his family.

Merry Christmas!


Our Christmas was a blast! Noah had a wonderful time opening his presents (and everyone else's as well). He was THRILLED to get a Thomas the Tank Engine table and all kinds of other 'big boy' toys. Rachel also recieved some nice gifts. It was a great day filled with sweet moments

Christmas Eve Cookies





Tradition at our house is Noah gets first dibs on Santa's cookies -- Shhhh, don't tell Santa! ;) It never fails every year so far he wants to take a bite out of every single cookie rather then eating just one whole one. Rachel passed this year, but I'm sure she'll be digging in next year! Hope you all had a wonderful evening and a magical Christmas tomorrow!

Rachel is 1 Month Old!!


We can't believe it! Where is the time going??? She is doing great and growing like crazy. It is amazing how much she looks like Noah did. She is a good baby - we are so blessed that she is such a sweet little doll.
