Family, Christmas, New Year's & The Rest!

Well, well, well. I guess we should be kicked off the blogger website from lack of recent entries, but until we get official notice, here is the latest with us! Hillary has been super busy growing a little baby, chasing an 18 month old, shaping the minds of 6th graders, and keeping our new home in order. Can you believe that we will be adding another addition to our family in just 3 short weeks!! We have some great pictures from Christmas and being together wth family. Here you go...



Camden helped decorate the tree. For every ball (bulb) he placed (tossed) in the tree, he took three off. It was fun anyway though. The tree decorating eventually lead to this picture...not Hillary at 36 weeks pregnant, but the gate around our lovely Christmas tree. Doesn't it all just say, "Happy Birthday, Jesus."


Cam got some great presents this Christmas. He LOVES his drum set from Aunt April and Uncle Ryan. Thanks for the gift of noise, guys! Just joking, it is so fun to watch him play.






He also got to spend some quality time with cousin Lily and cousin Gage. You can see that they have different relationships. Cam and Gage play with their new light sabers from Uncle Josh, while Camden and Lily share a Christmas kiss.
The kids were all so cute playing with their new toys and giving big thank you hugs and kisses to everyone!








We are so blessed to have wonderful kids and great families and friends to share our love and happiness with. Thank you for keeping up with our blog and our lives, even if we have been delayed with updating everyone. May your 2009 be filled with joy, prosperity, and unfailing love for everyone in your lives.


I had to add in a picture of Camden showing baby Kendall how much he loves her already and can't wait to meet her. Hurry up, sis, I got alot to show you!
