2nd Christmas - 2012

The stockings were hung...



Who wouldn't "Ho! Ho! Ho!" with that many stockings on their fireplace???

Not a lot of chatter on this one.  Just enjoy my beautiful family!

We started at Julie and Richard's house...

 Brynn

  Brynn & Chase

  Brynn practicing "the pose"

  Brynn - Diva practice!

Chase

 Chase has Brynn's cup.  Do you think he knows??

Oh! He knows!

Kate (usually preceded by "dear, sweet...")

More Kate

Kate & Brynn

 More Kate & Brynn

Richard and Chase

Richard, Chase..... and who's that?  Richard's doll? Chase's doll? 
Looks like an American Girl doll.  Must be Kate's

From Julie and Richard's to Amy and Greg's...

We weren't so lucky with pictures at Greg and Amy's.  The kids are biggier and off doing their own "thing".  BUT... we did catch Gregory with his new bass...
  Gregory, our rock star

On to Crystal and Scott's house to see if Santa came and... he did!!

Bryce showing us what Santa brought

Bryce
More Bryce

And yet more Bryce  (who can get enough of Bryce???)

Let's not forget Mason, the youngest of our family - with Dad, Scott

What more is there to say?  I am blessed beyond words!

Merry Christmas... again! 

At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”
And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said, “Truly, I say to you,
unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 
Matthew 18:1-3
