Happy 2008!

Christmas Eve was fun. We read the Christmas story from the bible and used the nativity set as props. Apparently one sheep, a cow and a donkey were not enough animals, Emery added all of his animals to the show.
Emery quickly claimed all stuffed animals as his own
Opening presents is fun!
A new hat and Piglet too
Chani's Christmas dress. Thanks Aunt Torie!

Well, Santa came through, Emery got that choo choo, and he loves it! He got a ton of books, and we read them all several times a day. Chani got some stuffed animals, many of whom Emery has chosen as his own. It was a great holiday, although we missed being with family....maybe next year.
We had a fun New Years Party with just a few friends. It was nice to play games and eat from 7-10 and after ringing in the new year at 10:00 PM, we all went to bed.
School starts again Monday, and today Emery is sick. We're trying to get well so the first week of school isn't so hard.
Mom had a pretty quiet birthday yesterday. She took the kids to the doctor (Chani is 4 months old and very healthy, and Emery has a cold), and went to a meeting for work. Daddy and Emery have a special surprise day planned for Thursday, but mom has no idea what's coming. Thanks to all her family who called!
