Christmas 2009

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!
While in Missouri I took 284 pictures. And there were some times I forgot to even take the camera out.
It's hard to pick just a few pictures to show what we did while we were there. Which was mostly hanging out with family, eating and playing games. So I guess it shouldn't be too hard.

Some highlights-
We had 2 Christmases. Awesome.
We got stuck for a few days in a massive snow storm with drifts several feet high.
Birthday parties.
I got to see my sisters new baby boy, Franklin!
We spent all of our time with family.
Keenan's Eagle Court of honor.
Good food. Really good food.
I loved watching our boys play with all their cousins, even if it took Jack until the day before we left to warm up to some (most) people!

#1 highlight...Giving Josiah is Christmas present.

Now, onto pictures.Yes, that's a giant onesie that Josiah is wearing. it's like a train wreck, you can't stop looking at it can you? :)
And he embroidered several linens that will be used in our house now. Also, some framed pictures of Josiah and me when I was a baby, which I love, that will hang somewhere in the house.
Since we've got home yesterday morning it hasn't stopped snowing. Good thing we don't need to go anywhere.
Now we just need to finish unpacking, mail off our Christmas cards (better late than never!!), get rid of the colds we have, and take down Christmas!

Happy New year everyone!

Awesome onesie. That towels are pretty cool too. And we are only on star trek 5...number 4 was my favorite so far with the whales and all the language.

I always love what you and Josiah come up with. This year will definitely be hard to beat. Your family keeps getting bigger and bigger. I miss all you guys. It will be fun to see everyone in person again someday.

I hope Silas doesn't look at your blog. If he sees all the pictures of family...and food...he's going to be homesick.

You and Josiah are crazy, by the way. ;)

What a great time we all had! Looking forward to next summer when weather won't hold up festivities at all!

That's awesome. I've been waiting to see a picture of this onesie ever since you told me about it! I can't believe how many pictures you take. I'm proud of myself if I remember to take 5 every few days on vacation.
