PICTURES!!

Prepare yourself for a very random post full of pictures!
my porch with garland and a wreath...we hung lights up too. it was so strange, they fit perfectly! vance tried to tell me he planned the house that way...yeah right!
sunday night was our awana program. it was awesome. above is a picture of emma and a friend.
a decent family picture after all the hoopla.
emma telling santa what she wants, when in fact she is really puzzling over the fact that he looks and sounds just like phil. she announced when we got in the car that he really was phil!

picking out our christmas tree. i some how managed to delete the pics of the kids, but colby took this one of vance and i.

emma at her first dance recital...i narrowly escaped a mishap! we left at 9:20 to be in kville at 10, got behind this reeeaaaallllyyyy slow person! i mean really slow! we ended up being late and i heard the music start as we walked down the stairs. to make a long story short, i asked the instructor to let the girls do it again, when there was a gap b/c we were waiting for another girl for the next dance to show up. i was ever so grateful!
this is taken at the dress rehearsal the night before...aren't they cute?
we got to keep natalee on tuesday night. she was lots of fun and colby definitely earned his big cousin medal that night. vance and i loved watching her sign "all done." too cute!
vance's big kill of the year!
so proud, we had to take pictures from different angles.
colby also shot a nice buck this year, but alas...we have no pictures b/c i was very sick that day:(.
colby made a long house for his class project. his dad and him worked on it and really got into it.
as you can see, my son has a talent with clay.

this is a buffalo hunt....i couldn't believe all the things he made!
everyone admire emma's starving, see through horse in the left corner....colby graciously allowed her to put it on there.
i hope you enjoyed....
stay warm!

Wow!! Is that a 'turdy point buck'?! (Sorry, Alan and Destry have just been listening to that song on youtube and I couldn't resist). :)

Great pictures...the house looks great! Love the picture of Emma and Sylvia, those are the kinds of pictures you're really going to treasure when they get into high school. and Colbys long house still amazes me, what a talented boy!

Love, Lauren

Yay for pictures. Emma and Sylvia look great. Maybe I can talk her into showing me her dance routine. Way impressed by Colby's long house. I couldn't have made all that stuff with clay.

great pictures! when bronson has to do his house, i will be inviting colby over:) and vance's buck.... are you tired of hearing about it still? and that picture of sylvia and emma, love it! like lauren said a picture you will forever cherish. love your garland and outside decorations. now i really don't see vance thinking that out but kelly on the other hand.... i could totally see him knowing that! glad you have finally posted.
