Merry Christmas 2010!

We are a happy family! Love to all of you!

Andy * Chris * Haley * Cash * Gavin & baby #4 in May!

Mrs. Miles

Haley is so lucky that she got such a great teacher this year for Kindergarten! Mrs. Miles uses songs to teach so many things and Haley comes home singing and teaches them to Cash and Gavin. It's so fun!

Santa USA

Haley's school was on the route for Santa USA and we joined in the fun! The cutest bunch of elderly people donate their time through the month of December to make 200 stops, arriving in helicopters, at schools and different locations to bring smiles to the faces of lots of little people. Santa and Mrs. Claus come in one helicopter and Frosty and Rudolph come in the next one. A van arrives with 5 or 6 elves that can barely walk but are sooo adorable! My little people loved this super fun event and Gavin couldn't stop talking about "Anta!"

Gingerbread Houses!

We had a great time decorating our graham cracker houses. Before decorating began we had dinner and the kids finished quickly and left the table to play. Crazy Cash had taken his pads off the armrests to his carseat and was using them as elf shoes. They were awfully slick on the wood floor so he fell and split his chin. So we thought it needed stitches but luckily Dr. Rousseau, our friend, just super glued it together and we are good to go! Grandma kept Cash busy decorating his house so he only cried for a minute. Fun night!

Everyone's growing

Only a few more times of riding 3 long and we're going to have to go for individual rides with daddy. The kids are getting too big!

Books, books, books!

Gavin has always been a book lover. He will pick out a book and look at it and get another and another. Lately he wants someone to read to him. Andy was cute to take time and read to him!

Bruising!

Gavin always has a bruise or scratch somewhere on his head. He did a great Tom and Jerry move where he fell back into an upside down chair which launched him forward into the table. This bruise came immediately. He has since fallen on it twice more to make it a lasting bruise. Poor little toddler!
