from us

with love

santa's little helpers

Evelyn and Sam are busy...

getting ready for Christmas.

they are re-decorating the house,

searching for Kringle, our Christmas elf,

singing Christmas songs,

eating "cutie" oranges by the handfuls,

oh, and jumping on the couches,

because what else do you do in the wintertime?

p.s. they may have worn Santa hats to our ward Christmas party, " a night in Bethlehem"

silly kids....

p.p.s. we (the mom & dad) really are  teaching them about the real meaning for the holiday.



little elf

The littlest elf at our house,

is 10 months old!

This picture tells about life with Preston.

He is on the move now,

a funny little army crawl,

to worm his way around the house.

I find him under the tree often,

grabbing at the lights

 and pulling on the branches.

He finds wrappers, toys and crumbs

all around the house.

Chew, chew, chew

He is working on a fifth tooth.

Eating any food that we offer.

Drinking out of a sippy cup.

Getting big, right before my eyes!

Oh, and he wants to wish everyone happy holidays.

He'd give you a kiss, if you were here!
