Mara's Many Faces...


Helping Make Dinner

December Minnesota Trip 2010

This year we will be celebrating Christmas in our own house in TN for the first time ever! We are so excited! But, we wanted our extended family in MN to have a chance to meet Mara, so we made a trip up there this past weekend. Here are a few highlights...

3 Months!

NOT looking at the camera
A kiss?
Please get off me!

After 103 photos with Josh's camera these three were the best I guess? HA!! Thank goodness for digital imaging and the DELETE button.

Mara is now 3 months old and we are enjoying her more and more each day. She has recently discovered her hands and has started to bat at her toys and try to suck on her fingers. My most favorite is her smile! It is truly infectious and Jeryn has such a way of bringing it out in Mara! They are two sweet sisters who love each other to pieces...I will re-read this when they are 12 and 14 to remind myself!!

Hey Griswold, nice lights!

We put up the Christmas lights this weekend too...the new LED white lights look blue. Not really what we intended, as the back of the house looks like a a law office or something. Oh well, at least they are energy efficient. Here's what 650 'cool white' Christmas lights look like:

In true Clark Griswold form, we cut our own Christmas tree too. We didn't find it in the middle of the woods, just at the local tree farm. Looks like about an 8 footer:

Me and Keith

So I ran into Keith Urban at the Titans game. He's a really nice guy. Not too tall though...he had 3" boots on and we're still the same height.
