Christmas 2009

Waiting for Santa to pass by on the firetruck. We had Cameron and Maggie that night so they joined us out front. It was C~O~L~D!

Snow Day!

What a surprise! We got snow here in Texas. Since I was babysitting extra kids at the house, Katie volunteered to go get Caroline and Sam at school. I wanted them to experience all the

snow fun that they possibly could!

Tina, Town & Country, in the snow....yes, she's decorated for the holidays :)

Just look at those faces!

Pure glee!

One of my favorite pictures of that day. Just look at the love between those two.

Samuel's Nursery Rhyme Parade

The Kindergarten classes at Samuel's school do a Nursery Rhyme Parade each Fall. Each child has to dress like a Nursery Rhyme character. Caroline did this when she was in Kindy. Remember? She was Mary (had a little lamb), not Jesus' Mary. I made her dress. Sam came home in the beginning of the month with the note about the parade. From that day on, he wanted to be Humpty Dumpty. I tried to talk him into being Jack Be Nimble or Jack (of Jack and Jill) and carry a pail. There was no talking him out of it. He insisted on being Humpty Dumpty. So off I went to the fabric store and made his wish come true. Here's the final result....

Samuel's costume was a huge hit and he was quite pleased with himself!
