Merry Christmas

Matthew 1:21 "Mary will give birth to a son and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins." John 1:14 "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us." Isaiah 53:12 "He poured out his life unto death. For he bore the sins of many and made intercession for the transgressors." Romans 6:4 "Just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life." We wish you all a very Merry Christmas!

Little baby on the hay, soon there'll be another day when nails shall pierce Your hands and feet as You provide our sin's defeat. Risen Jesus on the throne, we lift our praise to You alone- for You're the gift that we receive the moment that our hearts believe. Roy Lessin

Some New Pictures

What a great way to start my day!

First time ever seeing snow!

I love watching them watch the snow.

She was so captivated by it... and we are captivated by her!

It was very windy so it was too bitterly cold to go play in the snow, but Kara wanted to be ready in case I changed my mind. (Yes, those are her pj pants! It was almost bed time.)

I've got two cute little helpers!

She helps wash dishes almost every day. Yes, it makes a big mess, but it is so much fun to hear her say things like, "Bubble on it!" or "Get back in water cup!" or "Wash a Kara plate!"

She even helps clean up the mess afterward.

Giving her favorite toys some cookies.

We still scratch our heads and wonder why God would choose to bless us so richly with these two little girls!

Without a doubt, she is a "Daddy's Girl."

Kara loves to color!

Blueberries are yummy!!

Sleeping with her bear.

He's no dummy! He knows where the warmest seat in the house is!

She tried to put on her own shirt.

It was hard to get a good picture because she wouldn't stay still, but she kept saying, "Bubby on back!"

One of Lexi's favorite things is to play on Kara's bed. She thinks she's so big when she gets to play up there! (It's hard to take pictures because I have to keep her from rolling off, and they don't stay still so these are blurry.)

(Hugs for Lexi!)

Eating snow out of a cup. Fat free, dairy free, sugar free... this is the best snack ever!!

I love it when they play together! (Notice Kara's snow boots & pj's again. She always wants to be ready!)

Sitting in front of the heater. He would never survive in the real world!

Don't you hate it when you realize you only have one diaper left and you have to make an "emergency" trip to the store?

Lexi likes it!

Awesome picture of her blue eyes!

Sitting in her toy box to read her books.

Lexi says, "Make room for me!"

Such sweet girls!

Reading a book and holding Lexi's hand.
