For all those who come to this happy place, Welcome!

We got our family pictures done a week or so before Christmas. It was pretty cool. Jason would rather go to the dentist then take family pictures so it has been a few years. Anyway, Happy New Year! We wish you all the best in 2009.

We spent the week before Christmas in the most magical place on earth... Our favorite haunt Disneyland! They can be kind of grumpy getting ready for the big day... really (try flying & see how easy it is) Those are the real deal... no fakey fakes here in the magic kingdom. We got to meet the Mrs. She taught us a thing or two about cookie decorating. Paige, Santa & James - this Disneyland Santa is extra smiley (isn't he adorable) Jason (32), Abbey (3 months), Paige (6), Santa (pretty dang old), James (4), and Maren (33) - Merry Christmas - we hope it's a good'n. James & Paige in front of Sleeping Beauty's glittering castle

Here's just a load of pictures from the last month... enjoy my freaking cute baby! This was just snapped a few weeks ago, but the closest thing to family picture we have that is recent.

This is how it looked when we got there. Not even very cold out, but my kids were FREEZING to death & begging silly grandpa to make a fire in their wood burning stove. Their wish came true & we did get to enjoy snow. It melted within a day, but it did snow twice and it was nice while it lasted. Paige, Michael (my brother's son) and James enjoying the snow. Barefeet in the snow? What kind of mother lets her kids go outside like that?

My baby sister was married November 1st - our little baby is all grown up... she is so pretty. We love our little Mega Dega. This is Megan with all the girl grandchildren. My mom made all these beautiful dresses. Aren't they gorgeous girls!
