Christmas 2008






Emma was not the 1st to get up this morning and in fact she had to be prompted to get out of bed to see if Santa had come. She is our late sleeper! Needless to say, when she did get up she was ready for what Santa had brought.

Christmas Eve
















It was a must to go through our check list so we did not leave anything out before Emma went to bed.

1. New PJ's on
2. Santa's cookies finished
3. Read Christmas Story
4. Reindeer food out
5. Check on Santa's progress with NORAD
6. In bed!

Emma was ready for Santa!

Let it Snow!




When the song says, "Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!" They really mean it here in Spokane. We have already gotten close to 2 feet of snow (feels more like 5 feet) and they are predicting another 5-9 inches by Christmas. I love to see the white pureness but driving in it is another story. Needless to say we have done fine having the 4-wheel. So many people grumbled about having a 4-wheel when the gas prices soared, now they say, "thank goodness!"

Family Pictures










Our family recently had our pictures taken. Emma is almost 5 years old and we have never had family pictures taken. It was time to do so. It was so much fun! You can see she loved it!
