Merry Christmas 2010

We started a tradition 3 years ago for Christmas Eve. We have a family dinner, picnic style, on the floor in front of the fire. I don't know about how that will work in California but we will give it a try. Our menu always seems to change but it is always in the same location.

Cameron is not old enough to join us on the floor. MAYBE next year.

After dinner we got a little camera happy!

These days I am lucky if I get one shot of each kid!
Merry Christmas!! ( a LOT late)

Happy 6th Birthday McKenna!

Look at that girl on the cell phone. She thinks she is 16 but really she just turned 6 in December.
She is a spunky little thing and we love her so much!
Life just wouldn't be the same without her.

She chose to have her birthday party at Galaxy Golf and Games.
They ate pizza, soda, and cake. They climbed all over the play area.
McKenna invited friends from school and church and a lot of them seemed to know each other in other ways.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KEN!

Happy Halloween 2010

Cameron was a lion this year!
(Thanks Laura)

Camille was a pink bunny. She was able to wear her costume the most this year between preschool, church, and trick-or-treating.

McKenna was so proud to be a Candy Corn!!
I thought it was pretty cute too!

Kelly went with a Bee! I think because it was an easy costume.

I slipped the lion costume on at the last minute because he did not like it around his face. I swooped him up and put him in the wagon because he LOVES that!! After that it was no problem!

This was the best group shot I could get .

The sorting begins!
Happy Halloween!

Happy 8th Birthday Kelly!

Kelly turned 8 on August 24th. Every other year they get to have a friend party and she chose to have it at the bowling alley.

I cannot believe my biggest baby is 8. Times sure flies when having!

First Day of School

The first day of school is always so much fun! They look adorable and are so excited.

Camille started preschool. She goes in the afternoon and so far seems to really like it. How did she get so big?

McKenna is in 1st grade and goes to school all day now. She is still into the dresses and skirts!! So cute! How did she get so big?! We live really close to the school so the girls have been walking with our neighbor.

Kelly started 3rd grade ON her birthday! She is officially 8 now! Her shirt says "Birthday Girl".
Once again...How did she get SO big?!!
