WELCOME CHRISTMAS!

We began the holidays with a trip to Sarah's for
THANKSGIVING!
That was the beginning of our Christmas celebration.
Sarah's house (and kids) were all "decked out" for the holidays!
We will not be going to Portland for Christmas, so we were
happy to be able to see Sarah's family at Thanksgiving
and get ourselves into the "Christmas Spirit"!
We did a little SHOPPING . . .
. . .alot of EATING  . . .


and a bunch of just ENJOYING being together!

There were alot of little ELVES around that weekend!

When we came home we felt like "decking the halls"
of our house too!  This is the first year for
THIRTY EIGHT YEARS
that I have not put out our
NATIVITY SET!
Our little house just seems so small and the nativity set so big!
SO THIS WAS OUR SOLUTION . ..
                                                    A few years ago Joelle and Emmalee
made us this little Mary and Joseph made out of little clay pots.
P-E-R-F-E-C-T !
I think I scared Little Bear when I dressed "Hoover" in a
Christmas ensamble.  I found him keeping busy . . .

                                                              . . .AT THE COMPUTER!
Perhaps he was writing his Christmas letters?

MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM
THE SOUTHERN OREGON COAST!

Super cute mom! Love it! The picture of Little Bear at the computer is classic. I also love the decorated dog by the door. That is hilarious! Can't wait to see you soon (with Michael - wohoo!)

I think Little Bear wanted to go to www.seeyourchristmaspresents.com
so he could see his presents! So funny! Did you know that you can see your almost exact post on Ben and Jake's blog! Merry Christmas!
