A Little Late.

~

Ella has turned nine last Friday. She's fun, full of smiles and is a huge fan of Webkinz. Ella is a very lively person to talk to, and loves having fun, especially outside (usually barefoot if warm enough). She can tell you all there is to know about Webkinz. She's been a great little sister, and I love her every day. Happy (late) birthday, Ella!

Christmas Isn't Christmas Without the Tree

Well, the day has finally arrived when we break out the big plastic boxes chock full of Christmas decor and ornaments, which will alight on the tree with all their shiny, glittery, easily breakable glory. Decorating the Christmas tree is always an exciting event, and the end results were gorgeous!

Just as a Thanksgiving dinner isn't a Thanksgiving

dinner with turkey, a Christmas tree isn't a Christmas

tree without the star.

Whenever we can, we get an ornament that represents something

we did that year. This one, we got goats.

These are the big plastic boxes I mentioned.

A cozy fire.

A Scottish Nutcracker.
