Merry Christmas!!!!

I am so sorry about the lag in posts. Are you tired of my screaming picture yet? I am sure you all understand with the busy holiday season and all. I did however manage to fix my hair problem:

It is way too short for my liking, but it really needed a good chop! It will grow fast, and I see long healthy hair in my future :)

I have been cooking tons. I lost count on how many batches of divinity I have made, and caramel, and cookies, and cheesecake......let's just say, I LOVE my kitchenaid, but I wouldn't mind if it went on a little vacation.

Tayla looked like a winter princess in her eggplant colored dress on Sunday.

First the shoes:



Then the homemade bow:



Then the dress.

She was a doll. My own living, breathing, smiling doll. I don't know if I will ever get used to having a girl, I love it every second of the day!!! Another reason to love it, she wants to potty train! She has done number ones and twos!!! This was unheard of with my boys. Happy sigh....

Christmas was so wonderful today! We have had such a struggle this year, but by the looks of our tree this morning you wouldn't have guessed it! We had many santas to thank for making this a memorable day for all of us. We were given more than presents today, we were given many gifts of love and we thank everyone who helped us out this year.

Some things we want to remember about this month:

Logans first concert with the all school elementary honor choir

Going to see a live nativity in Eagle with some friends

Making sugar cookies with all the kids, lots of flour and many interesting cookies...

That is all for now. I hope to post before the New Year, but with all the kids home for one more week, we will see!

Merry Christmas! Beth
