happy belated holidays

once again i find myself asking "where has all the time gone?" we celebrated a wonderful Christmas this year visiting with family and friends, we are truly blessed. i know this post is a little overdue, but here are a few highlights....


the traditional picture of the kids by the tree. it's amazing how cooperative they are when they are waiting for presents!



Tim and I are reading this book together. It looks pretty good....i'll let you know if we learn anything good!


good times with the girls!
Tims parents dog had puppies the week before Christmas. You'll never guess what was on Sydneys Christmas list :) On Christmas day we surpised Tims grandparents by going to their church with the whole family, and oh were they thrilled!
Stellas favorite stocking stuffer.

we went to chicago the weekend before christmas this year which was nice and less rushed. the kids had a great time playing with their cousins. the trip home proved challenging as the highway was closed due to a 30 car accident....after several added hours, and many "are we there yets", we were very thankful to be home safe!

My sisters!

The grandkids

Cute picutes! I still love the outfit that Stella has on in the Christmas day picture. It was one of my favorites.
