Christmas 2009

We had a fun, exhausting, kid filled Christmas.
Here are some pictures.

Most exciting thing of all was Ryan and Melissa's engagement!! We were all hiding out when they got a picture in front of the Christmas tree downtown. I could not be happier for Ryan. There is nothing like seeing your sibling so happy. And we just all adore Melissa. They make such a great, happy, fun couple and I can't wait to see what God has in store for them! You can read more from her prespective, here.



This was our first Christmas in our own house for Christmas morning. It's still strange to us that we are parents and have two little kids. I wonder when that will sink in.



Santa brought Bella some dress up clothes. She was excited and said "Princess clothes!" She is also sporting her stocking stuffer hat & scarf along with the princess skirt and wand :) So cute!!



Farrah was snuggled a lot. Here she is with Gannie:



Here's Bella with a camera to be Dad's apprentice.



Between sweet Grandparents and Aunts/Uncles, Bella got a radio flyer tricycle, a bike with training wheels and a Barbie Jeep. She just needs a drivers license now.


Thankful for family.

Oh my goodness, could Bella be more beautiful and stylin' in her winter wear? Love it! And the Barbie car - that's classic. Thank goodness for grandparents, huh?!

(By the way, has anyone told you that your husband looks like Finn on Glee?!)

Merry Christmas Katie! We should have a PJ party in our matching owl PJs. I've been living in mine since Chrismas Eve. Your fam looks so happy. It so fun to watch Bella grow!! She's so cute.
