{ Happy Christmas }

Christmas went off without a hitch.
Santa came and he has some serious gift tag game. ;)

All the kids had fun and got things on their lists. 
Christmas is my favorite holiday especially with kids at home.

There is just a special feeling and spirit about Christmas
when there are little ones about. 
Lego's, books, tracing boards, clothes, cars, card games, video games,
gun accessories, iPod's, backpacks... 
Yeah, we had a great Christmas.

Parker has been wrestling for several years now. 
Today he took first Place in the Elgin, OR
Wrestling Tournament.
This kid is such a hard worker and
wrestles with such passion. 

all photo's taken with a sad sad cell phone. 


 After working so hard and not eating much, you get a huge burger and fries.

{ Christmas is in The Air }

Christmas is just around the corner, 
here is my keeping it real holiday photo. 
Sadly I didn't take many photos this year of my holiday decor. 
You gotta love my American flag still up on my cupboard. :)
 Finally did Christmas cards for the first time in several years.
 Lots of Felt ball orders to be made and lots of custom orders like these 2 Merry garlands.


I love my little holiday helper. 
Hes into using his pants pockets lately and it's pretty
much the cutest thing I've ever seen.
 Snowfall in Eastern Oregon.
All photo are taken from cell phones. 
Sorry for the quality.

{ Turkey Day 2015 in Washington }

I seriously can't believe this is the only photo I took of Thanksgiving Dinner 2015.
I'm grateful for Thanksgiving, it makes me reflect on all the things that
I have in my life. Healthy kids, a warm bed to rest my head at night.
Food on our table, a reliable car to take us where ever we want. 
Family beside us, a religion to practice freely. 
I am truly thankful for all my blessing big or small. 
We went after dinner to Aunt Geraldine's & Uncle Wendell's, to pick up a stove for mom.
Hers was having some serious issues. While there I took these 2 photos 
of Jentry & Ledger. Tugs at my heart strings to see these two together.
My 1st baby and my last baby together. 
Sometimes, the days go too fast.
We need to hang onto the simple memories like these.

{ Addison's Baptism Day }

This darling girl of ours got baptized today -on her Birthday 10.31.15
It was such a special day for her. In our church we believe that
children are accountable for their choices when they turn 8 and are then baptized
on or near their birthday's. Addison is such an awesome kid. 
Here are a couple pictures from the photo shoot I did of her for her announcements.

 The Finished Baptism Announcement (yes Photoshop)
Here is her baptism program I made in Photoshop.
Just a little prep before the baptism starts.

 When your kids take your camera and take their own pics.



She's ready!
Some sisterly love.
 Welcome Table
 Addison and her dad.
 And a couple of her friends. :) 

 We set up for a luncheon for after the baptism. 
We served BBQ Ranch Chicken Salad. I think we probably served 30-40 people. 
We had Pumpkin Bars and Maple Pecan Cake for dessert. 
Did I get a picture of the finished lunch all set up Or a family picture? 
NOPE

Happy Baptism Birthday Addison, 
We are so proud her this girl and love her to pieces!
