Merry Christmas 2012

Not a lot to say today.  I just wanted to post an album of our wonderful Christmas day.  We began with presents and ended with a delicious Christmas dinner around the table.  We didn't have much money this year but what we did have was a store where the kids would shop for their siblings almost every day and they had fun trying to keep everything hidden.  I love my family so very much!

Kid's got the camera again!

Here are some pretty unusual pics taken by Alex and Dakota.  Again, too funny not to share.

Meg and Xander

Just thought I would share some fun random pictures taken of Alex and Megan (mostly by Alex and Megan.)  I don't take as many pictures as I used to so I love that they are making sure that I don't loose any memories.

I "Mustache" you to have a Merry Christmas!

Megan came home from Kindergarten today with this little gem.  I thought it was too cute not to add.

Decorating the Tree

Here is the photo album of the whole clan decorating this year's tree.  It is a treat to have daddy here with us this time since more often then not we decorate at night and he is usually too tired to join in.  This time he was very happy to join us.

One of Dakota's school made ornaments.

Daddy putting up one of the ornaments from his childhood.

The reindeer is eating Dakota!

Now the reindeer is eating Lizzie.

The kids wouldn't let me take any more pictures of them until I took one of myself.

Rebecca kept hiding so I had to sneak this picture of her.

Group shot (Rebecca is still hiding.)

This is their version of the Garfield Christmas special cartoon when the family sees the tree and says, "oooooo".

Random Pix of the Twice Blessed Kids

We are crazy busy at the store but we always find time for a little fun.  Here are some fun random pictures.

Rebecca helping to keep things looking good.

Lizzie and her best friend Makenna getting ready to go across the street to Smith's to buy snacks at 10:00 at night.

Megan keeping herself busy behind the desk with me.

Dakota helping to sort clothes.  (This is where we keep the stuff we are sorting so that we can greet customers while we work.)

I thought this was the biggest whoopee cushion I had ever seen...turns out it is just a HUGE balloon.  Still fun though.

Alex always finds things to play with that he LOVES and we CAN'T sell.  (That smile says it all.)
