Christmas Photos

Ho Ho Ho!
What a gentle sweet Santa, don't you think?
Finally I'm posting our Christmas photos... there's not much. With baby number 4 on the way, I haven't been up to doing any more than I HAVE to do lately!











Modeling some weird stocking stuffers from Old St. Nick.

Here are some pre-Christmas photos of decorating the tree...


... and making Grandparent gifts.

Francesca about to dive into her new sandbox, courtesy of her God-Family.
She doesn't look to sure what to do here...

Help has arrived!



The kids decorated pumpkins and balloons...

Even the God-Father.

Played some fun games...







Smell and touch and guess what's in the bag!

Brains... rat breath... eyeballs...


Wario wasn't sure if he had the stomach for this!

How about this?

Then our friends enjoyed a hay ride.





Matching outfits! Different eras!

Two cute little pumpkins

Opening presents for the first time!



Happy Birthday To You!



How about some recycled cupcake, God-Mommy!




Here's our kids trick or treating later that night:
