If you give a kid Cookie...Blogging Mom story by LJ

If you give a boy an ice cream sandwich..... he will grow a pirate beard.
If the boy has a cute cookie beard..... mom will ask for the camera.
If you give a mom a camera..... she will try and shoot a cute shot.
If she shoots a cute shot..... she will want to blog it.
If a mom even sits down at the computer (with the intention of it lasting a total of five minutes)..... she will inevitably stay on the computer for hours because she gets carried away!

Gosh, if we didn't have facebook and family blogs I would be a very productive person! LOL! Actually, I have to say I've been a very good girl by not staying on too long!



This story by LJ is so cute and true and I had to share it!

Waves in the Sky

Did you ever see waves crashing onto the sand?

How about crashing onto the mountains?

We saw this coming home from church the other day.
Cool isn't it! wouldn't want to surf those waves.

fun times!

Okay I swiped this collage from my sisters blog. I love how fun it made our post Christmas celebrating look! Thought that bottom pic of me makes my belly look HUGE...well it does.

I love this picture! Seeing how much they like what you worked so hard to make them is really great! This year mama sewed dresses for new dolls!
These are like American Girls dolls, which my girls call American dolls.

As soon as they could they were dressing their dolls up.

Lilypad's dreams come true...

the girl who loves cooking shows gets to cook at home now!

Life size veggies came along too.

The very best part of the day was when daddy played with us, he got on the floor to help & play this game with us and later when he got on the floor and built a farm with us out of Lincoln Logs.

Wearing new sweaters and posing in front of Grandma S's tree!

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve we had a lovely ham dinner at Grandma's house.
Then we had daddy read the Christmas story from the bible while our auntie and uncle dresses as Mary and Joseph.
After that we exchanged gifts.
Thank you all for such fun and lovely gifts. Our girls were so happy spending time with all of you. They talk about sleeping over at Grandma's all the time so I know they loved it!
