We wish you a Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas! We hope everyone had a wonderful day! We were fortunate to be able to stay home for the first time ever. This was due to my family's willingness to travel here to East Helena this year. Thanks! We had a great day.

Santa Claus came to town!

Rori's second time with Santa

versus the first time around with Santa
Rylie loves Santa

She didn't want to sit on Santa's lap on the first visit

It's a wonderful life!

Last Saturday we went out to search for the mountain grown Christmas tree.

Take a look! It was a gorgeous day and we had to take our coats off. Rori and Rylie rode in the sleds until Rylie was displaced by the tree, then it was her turn to pull Rori and she was a great sled puller. Mark and Rylie even built a snowman to mark our triumphant capture.

Look out world, here I come!

Well, Rori is officially among the bipeds of society. She's been walking for a few days now. She still prefers to crawl most of the time, but every once in a while she gets brave and ventures out on her own two feet. Take a look!

Piano Virtuosos

We went to visit Mark's family for Thanksgiving this year. They have a cool old player piano, so here are the girls, Mark, and their cousin playing quite well. I bet you didn't know they were piano virtuosos.
