Feeling Merry!

I thought I would post a picture of our tree in the living room all aglow. We also have a Princess tree, a Boyds Bear tree, a kitchen tree, and a Monkey tree. We have decked the halls! I will post more pictures of the trees as the week progresses.

I just love this picture of Maggie looking at the tree! Innocence...













What a difference two years makes...look at the then and now. Christmas 2004 she was our gift to everyone, she still is...she just needs a bigger box!






















Today Emma Grace sang with the children's choir at church. The program started with the children walking in with an offering as they sang, Lord I Bring an Offering to You. Lucky for me, she was the first in line and I got a pretty picture of our girl leading the kindergarteners in. As for the singing...They are so funny to watch. When you put 3s, 4s, and K-5 on the same stage a performance is definitely going to happen! One little boy dropped his gum and Pastor Phil picked it up then the boy spent the time he was supposed to be singing looking for his gum, on the bottom of his shoes, on his pants, just imagine.

Happy Birthday to us! This week Maggie and I will celebrate our birthdays.

Today we had Christmas with Mamaw Emma. What a fun time and most delicious food was had! It is usually warm at Mamaw's house, on the inside, but not the outside. The kids played outside and we ate outside on the back porch. The bad thing....Doesn't look like a chance of snow....I really like snow days! As Julie says, at least we are not cooped up inside with our class all day! Way to look for the positive! Here are a few pics of today's festivities at Mamaw Emma's. Notice Maggie pushing the Elmo in the stroller. Thanks Nana for lots of laughs. The TMX Elmo (Maggie's b-day gift from Nana) is hilarious! I think the grown ups have enjoyed him the most!

By the way, aren't those girls beautiful? I certainly think so!
