Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to all! I am sitting here- 7:30am Christmas morning - waiting for Ella (and Travis) to wake up...oh the anticipation. Ella is going to be so excited...I have got the movie camera ready for her reaction. We had a busy day yesterday at the Mantle's and then at my mom's. It is so fun being a family of four. May you all be as blessed as we feel this holiday season and in 2010!




as close as we will get to Ella taking her picture with "Santa"

Annual Christmas Baking Day

We (mom, Amanda, g-ma, and I...and a few additions) have been baking cookies and other goodies a couple of days before Christmas for many years and it never gets old. We missed you this year, Katelyn! We made sugar cookies, rice krispy treats, puppy chow, fudge, white chocolate covered candy cane/pretzels, and peanut butter kisses. Yummy!

LOVE

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these pictures!
Our friends, Scott and Tiffany Souquet-Bressand, came over last Sunday to snap some photos of Jonah and Ella. They came out great! We are loving our new little guy and his big sister has been so helpful. There hasn't been a twinge of jealousy yet.
