Christmas

Well this has been a busy time of year. I have just finished my finals week and have finaly enough time to update alittle. We have been celebrating Jace and my Birthday's since I last wrote. He turned 26 and I turned the big 25 the last part of November. Then I tried for the first time to shop on black friday.

Embree at my Parents Christmas Party

It wasn't to bad but next year I am going to bring someone to watch mycart so that I can run and get things instead of having to take the cart with me everywhere it reall slowed me down and I wasn't able to get everything planned.


Makeing Christmas goodies with my family for our neighbors.

That was okay I was able to find other things though and I was sure glad that my sister Krista was able to go with me as well it made things bareable. Well then I still had school and it just finished on the 14th of December and boy did the teachers think that we needed to overload on tests and homework.


Embree again at the party

I had in the three weeks of school after the Thanks Giving break 10 tests and they were so hard but I guess I managed. Then Jace, Embree and I all got sick with a terrible cold and flu during finals week and that was no fun at all. I am finally just starting to feel better and so is Jace but Embree is still trying to get over the cold. Well Embree is so excited for christmas (almost to excited) she wants to open all her presents now and not wait she is getting angry that we tell her that we have to wait till tuesday (Chirstmas) to open them. Well I hope that every one has a great holiday and that you are all safe. We Love you all!

Embree

Well today is another day and boy is it cold. Well Embree and I are getting ready for the Holiday's and i was sitting there and couldn't help but take some pictures Embree was being so funny. We just recently this year bought a home and I couldn't wait to decorate for Christmas so on the 18Th Jace, Embree and I put up the tree and then last night we put out some other decorations. Well Embree had found a new favorite toy, it is one of those Hallmark Holiday toys that sing. Well this is the one with the snowman and his snow dog and

it sings jingle bells. It has only been out for a day but it is already starting to drive us crazy, but at the same time we can't stop laughing because Embree makes up a new dance every time she listens to it. I caught one of the dances a little bit on tape and hopefully it will work. Well at the same time in nursery she has learned how to fake sleep and she thinks that it is the greatest thing!! (Jace and I think other wise but can't seem to make her feel the same) Well while she was dancing and playing with the toy she figured that she was tired and I had said that it was time for a nap and she thought that she would do it her self and so she was fake sleeping and snoring loudly (that is about the only way that we know that she is faking and you can see her

Being wild and crazy as always

peeking though the smallest slits in her eyes) well she was pretending and well i guess that she was so tired that it got the best of her and she really fell asleep. It was pretty funny. She had to pull off all the pillows from the couch and made herself a little nest and just got a little to comfortable. Well on the other hand there is our funny looking tree because we can't put any

thing on the bottom of the tree because Embree thinks that it is her goal to help us undecorate the tree and put things away and then there is our cat that thinks that the balls and other decorations are the coolest toys, so if we don't put anything low then we cross our fingers and hope that it will help our sanity and save our tree from the tortures of a toddler and a crazy cat. Happy Holidays!
