Sorry for the delay again - my camera broke around Thanksgiving and it took me awhile to replace it. I borrowed my sister's camera to take pictures in between, but haven't got all of them from her yet, but I will. Anyway, here is some cute ones from Christmas.


So my pictures are a little backwards, but oh-well, I am running out of battery power. Our cats even enjoyed the holiday - we got them some new toys and they have loved them!


One of the reasons Sydnie wanted to learn piano was because of this song - Fur Elise, so I found a simplified version of it and she is learning it with the help of her piano teacher. Once she has it mastered, I will put a video up of her playing. She is doing to well with piano.



Here is our annual family version of The Nativity. Our baby Jesus was a little squirmy, but we had a lot of fun!


I took this picture up the road from our house - there is a wonderful lamp post that I just had to use in the background. She had fun blowing the snow at me!


Sydnie has been reading the Harry Potter books and loves them! She is now almost done with book 5. At school she earns points for reading and passing a test on the book she's finished and they get rewards for certain amounts of points. Sydnie was the first in her class to get to 100 which means she gets to choose a book to be donated to her school library. They put her picture in it and put the book in their school library. She chose Dragon Rider by Cornelia Funke. Ahhh - my little bookworm!
