More Christmas pics

Well, we weren't dressed up, but we were together! Christmas was wonderful as usual, and I feel very blessed to all be together and happy on this day of our Savior's birth. Mom came and surprised the boys on Christmas morning. We were so glad to see her, and you can tell....she was glad to see us!

This was a joke pose by Evan. This blue ball was for my grandmother's house for Christmas and they were clowning around with it posing all morning. Notice Evan's fine Tapout shirt.....ugh I hate that thing....

Merry Christmas!

Russ is waiting on the sleeping beauties to come down the stairs to see their stash.... Evan has arrived on the scene and gets the boots he's been needing.

Another sleepyhead comes in and finds the basketball first then the big present with his name on it.

This is only a fraction of my Dept. 56 Snow Village I displayed this year. My Dad gives me the pieces for birthday and Christmas, and every year I look forward to adding to my treasures.

Mom came and surprised the boys. It's always hard when she leaves. Boy you can tell Parker has grown here. Doesn't Mom look cute in her wig? Only two chemos to go. You rock, Mom!

Jenn Woodall Family Pics

Meet Jennifer Woodall and her husband, Matt, son, Maddox, and daughter Mattie. Jenn teaches second grade at my school and she's my very bestest friend. She lives about 10 mi. away, so we get to visit often. I really love going to her house and seeing the kids. They're so cute! Don't ya think?
Jenn's reading Goodnight Moon I brought to Maddox. He's hooked.

Mr. Maddox Fisher. Just check those eyes and that grin out. Oh, so cute!

Beautiful Mattie Ruth! I love this picture. Mattie knows how to pose and loves to take pictures herself. Cutie Pie!

Christmas with Russ's Family

This is our family on Russ's side. We gathered Sunday to eat and visit. We had a great time and it was good to see everybody. Even though they only live about 10 miles from us, we never get to see them because we're all so busy.

Thorsby Christmas Parade

This is the first time in years that we've gone to our town's Christmas Parade. Evan wanted to go this year so we went leaving Parker behind (he said he's good). We ran into Kelly and Cathy and Alexa and Wyatt and Teresa and Barry and grandkids and we all froze! The parade was good and it put us all in the Christmas spirit. Glad we went.

My brother, Kelly and me freeeezing.

Kelly and Alexa. She gladly wore her Paw's hunting jacket to avoid the cold wind.

Vacation time is finally here

I love Mondays. I love being on vacation. I love having time to do the laundry. I love being able to fix food (or buy it-haha) for the boys. I love cleaning the house getting ready for the family Christmas.
Life is good today!

Look What I Have....

Every Christmas I bring out these special Santa pics of the boys. Oh, the magic of Christmas....it keeps me going. This is Evan at two years old before Parker came into the world. And baby makes two! Parker has arrived, it's Christmas 1995, and Evan has a buddy for Santa's lap. Doesn't look like they were scared, does it? How cute my babies are.....I love you both.Fast foward about 11 years. It's 2006 and this was our Christmas pic with our dog, Chloe. My boys have grown.....
