Another Christmas season has gone by, just as quickly as it always does. Preston is still singing his version of "Have a holly, jolly Christmas..." which is "Jolly, jolly Kismis! Jolly, jolly Kismis!"-- repeated over and over again accompanied by a little jig-- which keeps the spirit alive. The Sunday before Christmas I attempted to get a photo of the kids, and to my delight after about 11 or 12 shots, I got one with them all smiling and looking at the camera.
In one shot, Trevor insisted on doing muscle arms. His sister also insisted that she would not be in the picture if he was going to do this. They compromised by him atleast lowering one of his bulging muscles so that it was not in her face.
Here is Christmas morning, with Daddy getting in with all the fun.
Trevor was ecstatic about his big boy Spiderman bike! (Santa realized that a regular, non-character bike was cheaper, and all he had to do was add a few shiny Spiderman stickers to it to make it official!)
Happy New Year to the Owens family! Looks like you had a wonderful Christmas. :) How cute your kids are Lisa. And it looks like Preston and Justin have the same red sweater. Target? Nice. I think it would be great to get Paige and Joy together for a duet. How sweet that would be.
Lisa! It was so fun to hear from you - and of course I and Bryson remember you. I showed him the blog, and we realized that he and Steve have the same shirt, they are both accountants, we have children very similar in age AND the same gender...I think we were twins born apart! I am going to be sending out our yearly Happy New Year greeting - but it's sent electronically this time. Will you send your email and your address and info. to my email at summerday.lord@gmail.com? Also, I'm mildly curious - what was it that Shar was telling you about?!

Why Do We Blog?
"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experience."-- Gordon B. Hinckley, 2006
