Christmas


We decided as a family this year to start our own family tradition by staying in our pj's and staying home all day together!  It was perfect.  We had such a great day spending time as a family!  Lydia was so much fun opening her gifts (she actually got into it, as opposed to last year when she was still too little to care!) and loving her new toys.  She didnt get much, but then again, she doesnt need much!  She is one special little girl, and we are so blessed to have her in our lives.  She is our world and we could not be happier to be able spend this holiday as a family!  We have enjoyed the time spent with extended family and look forward to more time this coming week with Emily's siblings too!  We hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas, and there is only 364 days til next Christmas...get shopping!!!!

Duplo's...are these for Joel or Lydia?  I'm confused! :)


That doesnt look like a safe sleeping arrangement!?

No pics....sorry

Just wanted to let anyone know who might be checking on this that I have forgotten my camera each and every time we have been up to Plainwell in the last two months...go figure.  However, the roof is completed, the bathroom is insulated, all the electric has been run to it, and the cabinets have been delivered so now "all" we have to do is put it together...that shouldnt take too long with Joel's busy schedule, right?!  Also, the bookshelves have been torn out of the front livingroom so we can now prep those walls and prime them!  I'm sure there is something I'm forgetting to mention, but oh well.  Unfortunately the new house is moving slower than we thought, but that's what we get when we do it all ourselves (oh, and I dont have a clue how to do any of it!! Poor Joel! haha) 

Merry Christmas and may all your days be blessed with happiness!
