Catching up on photos Part 2 (yes, there are more!)

First picture taken with our new camera.








On the way to Meredyth's diaconal ordination


Passing through Oshkosh. B'gosh!


Deacon Meredyth with the kids :-)


Mary and Rebekah

One of the gifts from us to the kids. When I (Rebekah) was younger we made placemats like this with old Christmas cards. This is Timothy's placemat...

David's placemat

Noelle's placemat

Anastasia's placemat.

Christmas baking: Making candy cane cookies.

Putting the kisses on angel kiss cookies.

Rolling the Russian teacakes in powdered sugar.

Helping cut out sugar cookies.

Tasting the dough. In a goofy way.

Aaaand, decorating the sugar cookies!

Anastasia helped bring up all the presents (which had been wrapped in the basement) while Forrest and the other kids were at chapel practicing for the Christmas service.

We were abundantly blessed with additional gifts from Grandpa & Grandma Eyre and Christ the King Church! 

Noelle in her new pajamas.

Anastasia in hers.

Pretending to type. Way too cute.

Getting one of the Queen Anne cherries Fr. Christmas gave him.

Hugging the sweater Grandma made him.

All our Christmas treats!

Noelle's hair in a french twist, clasped with one of her new hair things from Christ the King.

The kids in their long underwear from Grandpa & Grandma Eyre!

Playing the new Wii. 

Playing with her spinning light toy from Fr. Christmas (she loves it!)

I only just noticed that you were abbreviating Father Christmas. :) Even J.R.R. Tolkien didn't do that, and he was Catholic. :P

I especially love the Forrest/David and Rebekah/Anastasia pictures. The new camera really captures the eye color beautifully.
