Maddie loves shoes

Out of all my children, Maddie loves shoes the most.  She gets so excited when she sees boots or her sisters Hello Kitty shoes, she puts them on and then walks around all proudly.  She is such a doll.

Just some fun pictures

 She looks like Megan in this picture.  She did this pose all on her own.

 Well, ketchup is kinda a vegetable, right?

 Megan lost another tooth.

 Mel just loves ice cream!

 Daddy had a very relaxing break, he got to play computer games to his heart's content.  But of course, he is still a daddy.

Hockey

Drew gave us all tickets to the Icemen game.  It was so fun.  I am always surprised with how much I like professional sports game. 

Christmas 2012

 The Charlie Brown Christmas tree as it is known.

 Maddie commandeered someone's dinner.

 It snowed and the girls and Russ made a snow dog.

Christmas Eve

 I love how Jonny is hanging out in this picture. 

 My favorite part!  An ice nativity.

We went down to the Grand Ole Opry Hotel for Christmas Eve.  They had a Shrek Christmas ice show.  It was so fun, but so cold.  They had two ice slides that Megan and Russ enjoyed immensely.   Melanie threw a fit the entire time because we made her wear gloves, but when she though we weren't looking, she enjoyed herself.  We also took a carriage ride, it was really nice because it was 50 degrees outside.  Russ and I were amazed at how close Nashville was and want to go back there.  The hotel was amazing!  The inside was made to look like hotels on the bayou.

We wish you a Merry Christmas.

Isn't she beautiful?

 Maddie was not having it.

She was a shepard in the Nativity.
