This was the kids' first time decorating a Christmas tree. They loved it and were quite good at it. The fun thing was that mom said it was the first time she'd had little kids help decorate since we (her kids) were little. She likes it much better with little helpers. :)
This is one of my all time favourites.
Meet Muck and Wendy. (Bob the Builder character names, of course) Muck is orange and belongs to Asher. Wendy is kind of pink and belongs to Bella. The Galloway's gave them to us and they've become a part of our little family. 
They were entranced by the camera flash. I can't imagine that's very good for them (I only did it twice!) but it made for this great shot of them looking at the camera?!
Well, we've waited a long time for this but finally Bella has enough hair for pigtails! Woo Hoo!
Cousin Jordan (my nephew) came up with this great project for us. Making bird feeders. And it was so fun!! You cover a pine cone with peanut butter, roll it in bird seed and then hang it outside. The kids were really good at it - they actually made the bird feeders themselves. As opposed to one of those projects where the kids participate 10% and mom does the rest. 
Hey Scott, we made this sign to count down the days.
Needless to say, we are looking forward to Sunday.
Asher has developed an interest in Bob the Builder here at the Galloway's. He's been trying to learn the theme song. He has finally learned it...but it was while Scott was away so this is for you, Honey.
Bella got a some dress up clothes for Christmas. This picture features her piggy slippers.
Not dress up clothes. Just my favourite outfit of hers right now.
This one features her grass skirt.
The purple ballerina...or something.
The boa (that I made for her, thank you very much!)
