Mondo: Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas Everyone! Tonight found us at Brandon's Dad Rod & Val's house celebrating our 4th Christmas gathering of the season! Our daughter ended up in a tutu swimsuit and you thought she had full access to the candy jar...she was full of energy!

A gift to Brandon from Henley and I was a flip camera...okay, so it was for the family. We have been having so much fun playing around!

Okay, lets back up to Tuesday evening take 2 - celebrating with Brandon's dad Brad & Neila. Oh how exciting it is to be the owner of a Tickle Me Elmo - it is the first toy that makes Henley scream and screech with laughter! We had a nice time catching up, it had been a while!

Wednesday night the Eddin's family and ours celebrated our good friend Brad Holub's birthday!

Happy Birthday Brad! We are so thankful for wonderful friends!

Thursday night, few...finally the long weekend had arrived! After work, we headed out to Walford to visit friends who have traveled in from North Carolina. Jeff, Tammy and the kids! Wow how the kids have grown! Again, another reminder of how blessed we are to be surrounded by such wonderful people in our lives! On our way home, tucked off the side of the road, was this...

Welcome to Who Ville

This house was shining bright, and certainly stood out! All the work that goes into a show like this, I sure am glad there are people that still put all the effort in for non-lighter putter-uppers like myself! One day maybe!

Christmas Eve - our plans to Waterloo were re-scheduled do to the road and weather conditions. So...what a better day for a snow day!!

We practiced inside first, then suited up and headed out!

"'I'm ready!"

"Weeee"

Take 3 - Henley's first Christmas morning, at home with Mom & Dad! Once she woke up, we cuddled in bed then finally made our way out to the tree! She did great, helping Daddy tear the paper, peaking to see what was inside!
