Christmas decorations

We did it. We got the xmas stuff up and got our tree up. This was an accomplishment for me this year. I really had to fight to muster any desire to do anything. Bah humbug. It sure helped get the xmas spirit going. There is something about the lights. It is really beautiful. Sarah, had her field trip and was all excited, she had me curl her hair and wanted her old "xmas" dress. She looked so pretty.
It is getting hard for Satin to jump up on my bed, so I gave her a big pillow someone gave me. It was nice to see her really take to it. It is getting hard to see her get old. She definately is an OLD friend. We have sure been through a lot together.
I took these. This is Sarah's new obsession. She likes her hair kinky. We braid it in about 10 braids at night. She is lucky she has such pretty hair. I am definately jealous.

Thanksgiving in San Diego

It was so fun to spend Thanksgiving with my family. It was so good for me to stay up talking to Rob and Crystal. It was great to get to know them a little better, and love them more. It was so fun to watch the cute little kids. I loved talking to Leah. Such big conversations we had. Little Logan, the great mimicker. Look out world!!!!!!!! What a great weekend, holiday. Thankyou mom and dad. You truly made it special with no pomp. I loved it. It was nice to get away with Stephen and drive and talk and just spend special time enjoying each others company. Thankyou Dad for going with me and doing a little meager shopping. Thankyou Jason for making that possible. Thankyou everyone for comming and making my holiday. It was great to be with family, because truly, isnt that what it is really about? Thankyou everyone, for making the effort to be there and sharing time with me. The memories are what we take with us and I truly enjoyed this one and made many. You guys are so important to me and I love you all.

The camera fairy,"goblin".

These are what I found on my camera when I went to capture San Diego. I had a visit from the camera fairy, or should I say "goblin". It is funny to see what goes on when I am not around or not aware of what the kids are doing. My little Sarah is such a stinker, but so cute. Is that possible?.......... It is funny to see her little creative mind working.
