Sophie

My friend Emily tagged me, I had to email her and ask her what I'm supposed to do. She said it's just to post some random pictures that I normally wouldn't post. Since today is the 31st, I thought I would count to the 31st picture, and our sweet, Sophie was the winner! She has been a part of our family for 12 years now and we love her tons.

I tag Stacey and Jeannie, your it! xo

Fall or Winter

There is an autum in AZ, just in the winter.

Chistmas week

We spend our Chistmas Eve with the Lovin family each year. For the past 20 years or so the nativity tradition has been a pastime we all look forward to, and one of my most favorites of the season.

Williams and Lovin kids.

Santa came by Macky and Papa's for a little visit. Aunt Nellie and I posed for a photo with the BIG guy.

Gramie...

and Macky even had a few things they asked Santa for!

Jaden, a skateboarding ramp...

Allie, an ipod...

and Grahamers asked for a nut cracker? No idea where that came from. Marcie was a little bashful to sit on Santa's lap, but as soon as he started passing out the goods she thought he must not be all that bad.

We had such an awesome Christmas season, and feel so blessed to have a wonderful family to spend it with! 'Til next year.

Egg Nog

OH EGG NOG, OH EGG NOG how lovely are your calories(even lowfat). A morning treat, lunch drink, and after dinner dessert. Surprisingly, the kids haven't poured it over their cereal. I won't give them any ideas.

All I ( Marcie) want for Chistmas is...

" Yipstick!!!!!! " HOT!

Decorating gingerbread

Decorating the gingerbread house! One of our favorite Christmas traditions, then eating it up the next day. The gum drops are always the first to go! YUMMY.
