Bringing home the tree 2009





Bluffton Christmas Parade 2009





Dan put chairs out early in the morning to save a spot for us to watch the parade in front of the Sippin' Cow Cafe. The rain almost spoiled the parade, but it prevailed and we walked away with smiling faces and lots of candy!

White Christmas in Pennsylvania 2009






We drove to Pennsylvania the day after a record breaking blizzard. They had about 2 feet of snow on the ground that hung around for Christmas Day. Dan helped the kids build two snowmen and one snow fort. James and Hayes didn't even complain about the pink snow suits we borrowed from their cousins.

Silly Goose Photo Shoot Calhoun Street in November






My friend, Janet, is a talented photographer. She spent an hour with us and worked her magic.

We celebrated Thanksgiving in Bluffton with Gram, Papa, Aunt Alicia, and Uncle Adam. Halle, James, Hayes, Mama, and Aunt Alicia made chocolate chip oatmeal raisin cookies to celebrate Papa's birthday.
