Hello everyone,

Here are the pictures from Deuce, Lili and Fess at their Christmas pageant. Then I have pictures form Bean and Bug's Christmas program and our Christmas with them.

Deuce was a lady, Lili was a court joke teller and Fess was an angel!
Deuce had a solo song to sing and she did a beautiful job!

Singing again!
Here is Fess being an angel for the Manger scene!
Lili, Fess and Zoo thought the pony was fun!

You can see her looking for us in this picture! :)

We went to see this display of Christmas lights. Most of the pics here didn't turn out because of the lights. :(
I took a picture of Bean taking a picture of me!

We had so much fun this Christmas season! We traveled a lot, saw a lot of programs, shared a lot of good food and fun gifts and spent some great family time! I have one more group of Christmas pictures to share, then it's on to Fenori's birthday pics!

I pray that you all have a very blessed rest of January and a wonderful 2010, as you remember to put God first place in all that you do!

Shalom in Him,

Robin

Hello everyone,

Here are some more pics from the Fall.

She really likes the pictures of owls that are in the book.

We didn't take very many pictures at Thanksgiving. Everyone was home here with us and there just wasn't a lot of time for cameras! We had too much fun playing games with all of the kids! I have more that we took over Christmas and will post them soon. We've already celebrated Fenori's birthday, so I'd better get caught up! :)

I hope you're enjoying 2010 and planning on following His leading to make this the very best year of your life so far! I know I am!

Shalom in Him!
