Grace Plays You a Song

December 18, 2008 ~ Grace figured out that her shape sorting pieces are good instruments too. I tried catching this on video because sometimes she does it for a long time, but on this particular day I could only catch a few moments. It's still funny though.

Can We Get a Good Pic for Christmas Cards?

December 14, 2008 ~ We tried several shots, with 3 cameras, to get a good picture for Duane & Diane to use in their Christmas cards. I'm not sure which picture was chosen, but I thought the first picture shown below was cute. I caught a few goofy shots after that too. MERRY CHRISTMAS! :)

Christmas Decorating

December 7, 2008 ~ Ryan was a really good helper when we decorated the Christmas tree this year. And he had a lot of fun looking at the ornaments as we pulled them out of the boxes. We put on holiday music and had a good time together as a family. Afterwards, we pulled out the Christmas books to read before bed. (That's a (washable) spiderman tattoo on his arm). ;)

Halloween '08

I've been meaning to post these for awhile. Here are pictures from Halloween. Ryan was very insistent on being Darth Vader this year. He's never seen Star Wars... I don't even think he knows what it is. But his daycare buddy, Aftyn, was going to be Darth Vader so Ryan wanted to be just like him. Grace didn't care what she was, obviously. So this year she was a big ol' skunk. And I always call her a little stinker, so it was appropriate that the rear end had a red heart that said "Lil Stinker" on it. We had fun trick-or-treating because it was so nice out. I think Scott had just as much fun as Ryan, if not more. He was lovin' it and didn't want to go home!
