Everyone gathering for the Christmas story. Matt sat on the floor lined up with the kids.. it was very cute.
Baby line-up! Annie sure liked her cousin Addy. They met for the first time this year at Christmas. You can see Sharon's hands waiting to catch any tumbling over!
Derek, Beth and Isaac! What a smile from little Isaac!
Memere and Paw Paw! The ones that started it all! This family and our Christmas traditions! We love you!
On Christmas morning I gave the dogs their new stuffed dog that they love so much! It was a replacement for the ragged one. Here is Maverick posing with his new toy. He's such a good boy.
My sweet baby girl, Maddie and her "take-me-with-you" face.
