Our Christmas 2011

Finally, here is our Christmas pictures.  We made cookies, and I had a very cute helper, don't you think?

The kids left cookies for Santa...

and apples and carrots for the reindeer.  This after we saw lots of reindeer in our field driving home Christmas Eve night.  I've never seen these 4 kids get ready for bed so fast in my life.  Zachary was most excited about this part, he told everyone how the reindeer ate his apples.  (Smiles!)

Christmas morning, yea, a picture with all smiles!

 Lindsey with her doll Kaya.  And Rachel below with her DS.

 Brady got a spiderman bike and helmet for his gift...so exciting!

Zachary asked for a red tractor and that was his favorite gift.  He loves his bike too, but maybe will enjoy it more after his cast comes off.

 Grandma and Pop-pop came over to celebrate with us and Zachy kept his Pop-pop in order.  Then later that week to the Taylor's to celebrate with my brother and his family.
 

What a good-looking crew!!

Sweet baby Madison...she loves her Mom-maw!

 Alex sporting his Captain America mask and Brady with the gift he most asked for...a Triceratops!!!  He has serious dino fever!

 Uncle Scott with one of his daughters, Lily.  And Zachary and Lia playing trains.

And, the beloved pop-gun.  Zach still loves it and even a cast can't keep him from shooting!  


We had a wonderful Christmas and it was so nice visiting with everyone.  We are so blessed!

Christmas Time

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas... and time for lots of pictures.  The kids decorated the tree long ago and we've already celebrated Christmas with the McNulty clan.  So here's a lot of pics for all of you.

Rachel lost her first tooth!!

Decorating a gingerbread house!  I think Zachary ate more of the candy and icing than he used.

This is the manger Bruce built for me for our nativity set.  

Christmas at the McNultys!!!

This beloved pop gun was a gift for Brady...as you can see he didn't keep it very long before the great hunter took it.  

Michael and Andrea came in from Arizona.  

Zachary and Jack playing.

The girls: Lindsey, Kate, Rachel and Isabel.

The little kids got these great pajamas from Aunt Johna and Uncle Tom.  So cute!!!

And...the  museum was a big hit.  Brady LOVED seeing all the dinosaurs!!!

And I think he could have stayed all day and dug for bones.  

Hanging out in a dinosaur track.

Then back in time for Lindsey and Rachel to have their piano recital on Friday, Dec. 16th.  They did and great job and looked beautiful!  This is their teacher, Grace.

  Happy baking and last minute Christmas shopping!!
