Christmas Humor

Heather and I missed out on seeing my side of the family in Arizona this Christmas. But we got some pictures via email that made us laugh very hard! Somebody decided to bring the pony, Flirt, into the house on Christmas and get the kiddos on it for some pictures! How funny! Here's a couple of those pictures.  

Monte and his little niece Isla

Danny and Maureen pose with Isla too

Logan and Isla

Isla with her mommy (my twin sister!) Kelly check out Flirt the pony!!

Logan the cowboy!

Monte pauses in wonderment over the fact that there's a horse in the house.

Well not only did we miss out on the chance to see them over Christmas, but possibly our only opportunity to ever see a horse inside a house!!  Thanks for the pictures Kelly and we miss you guys!

Elise and Jacoby at Thanksgiving

During Thanksgiving we got together at Dale and Tammy's place. At one point we got "the kiddos" Elise and her cousin Jacoby outside for a little photo shoot. Here's some of the highlights of the pics of Elise and Jacoby, and a few with Heather and Amanda and Zach too!

Elise's Birthday Pigout

Elise had quite a weekend last weekend.  She celebrated her first birthday, or as we called it, her "first birthday extravaganza!!"  Her actual birthday was on Friday.  And she had two birthday parties.  On Saturday she had one at Grandma Ellen's house, and on Sunday at Grandpa Mark's house!  Her auntie Holly made Elise two separate little cakes, one for each party, and boy did she tear into them!  There's a bunch of pictures above of her devouring her two cakes, as well as some other pictures from her parties.  Elise's favorite moment was when we all gathered around to sing her happy birthday.  The look on her face said "A whole room of people....singing to me.....how fantastic!!" When the singing and her own personal cake happened the second night in a row, she was sure this is what life was going to be like from then on....every night people sing to you and give you a cake!
