Finally able to get some of our Christmas pics up (yahoo!)
Later that evening…
And, here’s what we woke up to.
Our backyard.
No, we haven’t thrown our pumpkins away yet.
Yes, Ethan is trying to sled on a skim board. We have some winter shopping to do.
The artistic photos are credited to Abbey. She’d want you to know :)
Our neighbor came over with a sled – guess she felt sorry for us! Here Lainey and I are headed down. Did you know sleds are incredibly hard to steer?? We almost hit a tree, and then slammed into the bushes. Fun.

Wonderful photos! such a happy group of kids (and I’m sure two happy parents, too) … what did Dylan make of all this? was this his first snow? Who got the drum set? Guess I’ll wait to get all my answers on Thursday night?
Anyway, I’m glad to see some of the excitement and joy …

Me too !!! (glad to see the pictures and can’t wait to see you all Thursday) What exactly has Marley got? I know the electric guitar, but not sure about the drums??? Tell Abbey the photo was gorgeous. And I like the boys Chinese shirts, too. Dylan may not know what Christmas is yet, but he looked like he was enjoying it anyway. I could just imagine you all sledding down the backyard straight into the lake (don’t mention this to Payton and Ethan or they may want to try it) LOL Is Lainey’s snowpeople her and Dylan?
So….. all of you stay well !!

Tree & gifts are beautiful…too bad they got ripped into soon after this photo was taken…sigh..all that work!! Drums (already heard them being played and Ethan explained about soft drum sound and LOUD drun sound!) Abbey, you look quite professional playing your pretty new guitar, and Marley, I really love your new Pillow Pet!! Too bad you don’t have a photo of Payton’s new little buddy (the donkey…he can really dance!!!) Dylan really loved all of his dump trucks and the school bus we gave him…he kept going around and around the floor pushing them! Lainey…how many Barbie dolls have you gotten so-far..??…oh, and your Dora doll, too!! =)
Love the snow pictures…the one of your backyard is breath-taking…looks like a post card! Way to go, Lainey, a snowman and a snow baby..cute!! Glad you guys didn’t crash into a tree…I don’t think I would have been able to handle that!! Abbey, beautiful photo of the berries & snow…looks like a Christmas card! What a GREAT 1st Christmas for Dylan, and you have plenty of pictures for his album!!! Happy New Year!! <3

Merry Christmas! Little T was overwhelmed her first Christmas home too. The snow – she loves it. We put her on a boogie board and pull her around the yard. Here in G’boro its flat (unless you go to an overpass hill) so pulling her had to suffice. She loved it and we always yell Wipe Out when she falls off.
Love the pics!
Hugs,
Carla

Oh my gosh, how fun!!! Wow, Dylan is so much smaller than Lainey- don’t know what I was expecting. Love Abbey’s expresson for the guitar and the boys look so handsome in their Chinese shirts. SNOW wow you are lucky. I love the pic Abbey took of the berries and the snow too. Love you.
