THaNkS AUnT AnNie!

My sister makes the cutest hair bows and we were luckily enough to get a few... OK... we got more than a few!! They are much cuter than the pictures show, they are WAY cute with side pony tails and flip-dos! These bows are a big hit in her small Nevada town! She also sells something called hooter hiders, but I don't need one of those, thank goodness! Thanks for sending the hair bows and the very CUTE bow organizer to us, you're the best!

A few more Christmas Pictures -

Build-A-Bear ROCKS!

The Build-A-Bear gift cards were very exciting! Their reactions were priceless! I think that they were the hit of Christmas, thanks Grandma B!

If only she were OCD about keeping her toys picked up and following the rules. As Bryleigh took out each toy from her stocking she lined it up, putting it in a very specific order! Daddy bought some car racing track thing, that's why Santa brought hot wheels.

Chrismas Eve Dinner

I didn't intend to take pictures or even mention our Christmas Eve dinner, but after Jamie's 3rd taco, and her fourth sopapilla I decided to take a picture of her enjoying this Mexican feast. Everyone else was done once I decided to take the picture so it's only Jamie - - Contrary to my Mom and Sisters' thinking my "little family" does have some traditions. For Christmas Eve we always have yummy Mexican food and we open one present. This year we ate beef tacos with homemade salsa. For dessert we made sopapillas only we named them "snowp-a-pillas since the girls added so much powdered sugar on them. They were a huge hit and we will be having them again next year!

My big girl LOST a tooth!

Just so I know when she asks me later in life, on December 23, 2008 Camryn lost her very first tooth! It's a bottom tooth... and on January 8th she lost her other bottom tooth.

Grandma B's visit Christmas 2009

I know I know, HUGE SUPRISE!!

We can't stay put for too long or we might actually grow mold! It's sadly true, we are moving again in early March! Where to this time?? The Program director over-nighted shirts to all my girls the day after we interviewed! Can you tell from Camryn's shirt where we are headed?

Dave was offered a position at the University of Madison Wisconsin. We are going to be freezing badgers that like the Packers! The job sounds like great opportunity, but would be even better in my opinion if it wasn't in WISCONSIN! Dave is going to be teaching at the PA program as well as being the academic coordinator for the program. He will have the opportunity to practice medicine one day a week and is excited about that too! Wish us luck as we head even further away from my Mom and from the warmth of the SUN!
