Sad.

Good morning! I just wanted to post on my blog what Mom saw on Facebook. Mr. Whaley died. Mom grew up with Mrs. Whaley and Mom's sister-in-law, was a teacher at the school where Mr. Whaley was the principal. So. Well, I just wanted to let you know.

Christmas Pictures, as Promised.

Good morning everyone! Here are some of the Christmas pictures.

 The boys were so excited about getting this game. It has been a big hit with the whole family! Me and Anna have played it, and even Daddy likes to watch!
                             Is this the cutest face you've ever seen or what?! He really liked the cool toy from Great Aunt Tiny and Uncle Wayne! Cutie!

Uncle Jason and Aunt Denise sent us this great puppet stage and 4 puppets. It was a big hit. We all planned a little play and did it for Gram and Gramp and Aunt Jenny.
                            When this was happening, Owen looked up at Mom and looked  like saying if he could, Get me out of here before I drown in wrapping paper!
                 Puppet show again. Sorry about the white thing. That's Ethan getting his puppet ready. And this last one is all the cousins at Nana and Poppy's house. Aaron, Alivia, Me,(holding Owen) Anna, Ethan, Delaney,(who was kinda tired) and Jillian.

Happy New Year!

Twas The Night Before Christmas......

Hello everyone! I know I just posted yesterday about pretty much the same thing, but, I'm so excited! On Christmas Eve, it's so close to Christmas and I know it, that get the jitterbugs. Whatever that is. On Christmas Eve, at about 5:00, at our Church, we always have a Christmas Eve candlelight service. After we sing and Pastor talks a little, everyone who wants to, can go up and get a candle, and light from it another candle. Than, you go stand against the wall and the lights are turned out. It's really cool. But, I'm not going to do it. I am going to stay in the nursery and help, because last year, Aaron got to hold a candle and he was right next to me, and I leaned over to tell him to try to hold the candle still because he was wobbling it, and my hair caught fire from his candle, so, I'm helping in the nursery tonight.

Decorations, and now the Tree!

Hi Everyone! Last Sunday, we were are still a little sick so we stayed home from Church and slept almost the whole day and watched movies on the new program that Mom and Dad gave us as an early Christmas present. It's called Roku. It's really cool. You can get movies on Hulu and Netflix and even rent movies from Amazon! How cool is that?! Well, at the end of the day, we were feeling better (and needed something for supper) so we decided, to go get our Christmas Tree! And Daddy was so tired (cause he had just gotten up) he didn't even really dress! Just a T-shirt with a warm fleecy flannel shirt over it, his  coat and gloves and get this, he wore his Pajama pants! Ha! Well, anyway, after ruining our shoes marching through the icky gicky mud, we chose a tree and went in to pay for it. There, Dad and Mom had a glass of Apple Cider and all of us had a cookie. We also got 1 piece of candy and the lady filled little plastic bags with "reindeer food" for all of us except Owen. (It was really just some Rolled Oats mixed with some pretty purple glitter. We are saving them for Christmas Eve Night to sprinkle on the ground for Santa Claus's reindeer.Ha!) Aaron likes Rudolph best. So,we got Subway for supper, got home, ate, had Advent and fell asleep.
