December 2011

I can't believe 2012 is almost here.  It feels as though it should still be 2010!.  We have had a busy December.  Dave has been working long hours on his Pulmonary rotation.  But we did manage to squeak in a trip to Branson, MO and have a fabulous Christmas Eve and Christmas morning.  Due to Dave's schedule we did celebrate Christmas a day late.  But that worked out great because we didn't have split Christmas morning up by attending church on Sunday morning.  Here are a few photos from this month.
 Decorating the Christmas tree.
 Making Christmas cookies
 The advent calendar that I made.  I spent a lot of the end of November making this advent calendar.  It had scriptures about Christ in each ornament. 
 Jade and Cara
 Christmas lights in Branson
 Playing in the ball pit at our resort in Branson.  Our resort also had an indoor waterpark that we went to about 3 times.  However, I didn't take pictures!

The picture with Layla and the ribbon/banner she got for Christmas reminded me of you Cara when we were little. Didn't you have one of those also and loved it? Thanks for posting the pictures!
