Christmas Cheer x 2
Merry Christmas!
Christmas Number One:Place: Marty's sister and brother-in-law's place (a.k.a. Jenessa & Jarend)
Menu: Ham, scalloped potatoes, garlic bread, bread sticks, veggies, and TWO amazing desserts!
Most memorable moment: Opening my present from Mrs. Speelman - She made a beautiful scrapbook of Marty and I from the last 7 mo! I love it!
Funniest moment(s):
* Watching Mr. Speelman do the 'mumba' (If any of you know of little kids who watch Dora, you might have an idea of what this might look like :))
* Marty's driving :) (He knows what i'm talking about)
Merry quotient (out of 10):
11! :) - I had tons of fun, ate WAY too much, played with Marty's beautiful neices and hung out with his family, and got spoiled rotten!
Marty's parents with all the grandkids... prior to opening presents and the grumpiness that ensued ;)
Myself and baby Owen
Uncle Marty playing blocks with his neices. Marty, make sure you SHARE those blocks!
What a cutie :) - Marty's neice RebeccaPlace: my house
Menu: Too much! :) Turkey, potatoes, rolls, salad, beans, and lemon merengue pie. If that wasn't enough, later in the evening we feasted on finger foods and tons of baking! mmm.. :)
Most memorable moment: Seeing my sister's reaction to the drawing i made for her.
Funniest moment: 5 of us all fighting to put the LAST puzzle piece in (doing a puzzle around Christams is a family tradition. I believe the winner was Rob, but only because Marty and Rob not so inconspicuosly "kidnapped" a few pieces in their hands until the very end.
Merry quotient (out of 10): 11! Once again... being with family, singing Christmas songs, lots of laughs, and celebrating our Saviours birth together made for an amazing time!
"The kids" (and the kids kid)
Mom and Dad amongst all the gifts!

looks like lots of fun and lots of love!
Okay so weird! We did the exact same pussle (remeber my computer missing the last letter of the alphabet) this Christmas! So beautiful. And for the record I got to put in the last peice cause we lost it and I found it three days later. Also, a note for Judah, if you get those blocks back from Grandpa buddy, they are great in the bathtub. Rach you look beautiful. Say Hi to the fam for me. I love you
welfare!!! i love you too! How have you been? You need to call me sometime and give me an update! That's cool that you did the same puzzle - it was a nice one eh? btw... what are you up to this friday???
p.s. thanks for the hint about the computer ;) - i was trying to figure out who it was and then i remembered the mishap in second year... :)
i miss a lot from home
