Cutting Down Our Tree...Boom!

This one is perfect! Just my size! If I hide here Mama wont take my candy cane away from me. Maria, the tree lady, gave me my first piece of candy:)

Ut Oh! Lost my cover. I better run if I want to hang on to this delicious sugary treat.

Dada almost has it down! "Boom"

As long as I can keep this candy cane I will pose for photos all day!

This weekend we took a trip to the new Birchfield Penny Art Center. For a minute I thought a guy was a statue and then I got real close and he moved! That was a surprise (you could have warned me, mama).

Just hanging out with the bubbles.

OOOOOOoooooo it was cold outside!

Thanksgiving Act 2

The Rogers Thanksgiving was a quiet one with Noelle and Aria at their Daddy's family's houses. But Jolie and I made the best of it anyhow. We got all the pie to ourselves!

Fun stuff, huh Jolie?

Dada, teach me how to play chopsticks please!

Thanksgiving Act 1

Jennifer, Grace, Mama and I posed for a real long time for a photo. Then I got a bit silly!

I danced with Elijah to work off some of those calories:)

And Grace and I finally got to sit and play. Look how big Grace is and she is only 9 months old! She's a healthy, mama-milk lovin' baby!

HERE YE, HERE YE!

Ms. Sharon Rogers, the infinitely talented photographer, selflessly kind woman, and ever patient mama, has published her website! It has been in the works (in her heart and on her laptop) for a while now. She went live tonight and it is reason for a huge celebration! Check her out at makinglightoflife.com. When you get to the first page you can choose to check out her blog or her flash site. The flash site is the new one. Look at it when you have a few quiet minutes. It is a beautiful collection of love. Sharon has a way of erasing the stress of the day and the unimportant chatter that happens in daily life and capturing the truth of the heart. Have the volume on on your computer so you can hear the amazing music that the site is set to.

Congratulation Sharon! My heart is overflowing with excitement for you!

First Snow!

I think she likes it!

What the heck is it?

ooooo! It landed on my nose!

Sure is cold out here. Where did all the squirrels go (or should I say "cwerl")?

Grandma Barb's Birthday Party

How cool was it to see all four girls big enough to play together? Willow trolled around Joey and Kim's house like she was on a mission. She is wearing her super cute hat that Grandma made for her and pushing the dolly stroller around the house (including down the stairs into the family room!).

A bitter sweet moment for a Mama- my baby joined the big girls at the princess table.

And she had SO much fun! She was so proud of herself- independence!

Playing with Rice

Mama filled up the water table with rice and let us have a good ol time pouring and sifting and working with it.

Ahhh.... Gravity.

Jolie thought it made a good dance surface! She has some sweet moves:)

More Light Night

We had the Christmas tunes going, but Willow kept pressing the buttons on the CD player.

The players...

The workers...

Light Night 2008

We celebrated and decorated for our annual Light Night! This is Willow and Papa last year. It was REAL cold that night so Willow went out at the end when Papa finished putting up the lights.

This year we thought ahead and put them up while it was still semi-nice out.

Kiss!
