Christmas Day!!

Andrew, rockin' out with his new drum from Grandma & Papa...as soon as opened it, he picked up the sticks, raised them up, clicked them together while shouting "one, two, fee, fow" and then started banging...just like a rock star! I still don't know where he got that - but it was funny!!

Elizabeth with a favorite gift...a doll from Aunt Stacey that came with a bunch of hair-styling accessories...lots of fun!!

'twas the night before Christmas...

Sorry, Christmas Eve...in February! Here we are getting ready for church - don't they look sweet in their Christmas outfits??!

and, 'twas the night before Christmas...cookies and diet Coke, ready for Santa!! (At our house, Santa prefers diet Coke to milk...at least it's better than my brother, who leaves a Bud Light for Santa...my mother frowns on that one!)

Christmas card photo shoot...

Here is the photo I ended up using in my Christmas cards this year...I had big plans to order some photo cards online, but the closer we got to Christmas (and I still had no appropriate photo...)the prices kept going up! It would have cost close to $250 for like, 50 cards...and I just couldn't justify it! So, I ended up buying some cards at HomeGoods, printing this picture on my home printer and sticking it inside the cards! Not quite Martha Stewart, but good enough, right?!

Here is one of the pictures that didn't make it to the final cut...!!! Cute, though!!!
