Christmas Eve for Joy

Joy loves the snow! I went outside about 10:30 PM to take some pictures and Joy was just sitting on the porch barking at the snow. It wasn't till I called her that she got off the porch and started sniffing around. She ran though some pretty big snow drifts, some of them were twice her size!!! I about frozzzze... it was so cold, and the wind was blowing really hard! I don't know how she could stand it! =D

Christmas Time Is Here!

Hello I'm back!

It has been crazy around here with the Christmas season and all, but I love it!!!!

Finn is home, has been for a while!! He is doing well. Chip told Hattie that he is a fat little boy and can't stop sticking his tongue out! =) The photo on top is my favorite so far, but still love the rest!

Here is the link to all the rest of them! http://marykeltingphotography.com/Finn It made me so happy seeing all of them as one happy family! I can't wait to meet him!!!!

TX Elliotts & OK Elliotts

Mom, Aunt Lianne & Dennah made 9 pies....

They were so GOOD!

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Here are a few pictures of our week with The TX Elliotts! =) Had a lot of fun and look forward to next year!

We had a BLAST!!!!

It really should be illegal to have this much fun! The Chathams came down for some kind of opening deer season. Bow, Rifle, Mussel Loader... too many to keep track of! =) Anyway, the point is they got to come for the weekend, and we had a BLAST! This is just a small look at our schedule... Friday night: stayed up till 5:00 AM (We were going to bed just as the dads were getting up to go hunting!) Saturday: most of us didn't get up till 10:00 AM, crashed about 4:00 PM got up about 7:30 PM and started all over again. Only this time, the moms said to be in bed by 2:00 AM. In all this time we accomplished: sewing, scrap booking, talking and... a lot of moving watching, LOL! Oh, and sometime in all that Mr. Chatham got a doe. We were so happy that his trip was so successful...some meat for their freezer and got some sleep as well! All the hunters slept in Grandpa and Nana's trailer to get away from all the noise of fun we were having in the house. =)

SO CUTE!

This is the most resent photo we have of Finn & Mama Bach. He is so cute!!!! I'm sure Chip, Ty, Bitty & Bekah can't wait to meet him, 'cuz I can't! =) Just looking at this picture reminds me that God can work miracles. Mama Bach once reminded me that God knows the desires of our heart, and he sure answered Mama Bach's! =)

Here are some pics we took on our trip to CA, one week before Finn was born!

Brenna, Brooke & Dennah

Hattie

I have no clue what happened...

I (which is so much like me) went to bed before this happened, so I really don't know what went on.

These two pics really show how down to earth we can be with the Chathams, and I'm just really grateful for their real friendship! =D

Hopefully we will be able to play at nursing homes with them this year but with Hattie in school, we're not going to have a pianist unless we loose a violinist! Guess what?... Olivia plays piano, so she might be able to help our little group!! That would be totally awesome! =)

Taking a Hike

Sunday Afternoon

Friends

We Love Our Shoes

I had a great weekend!! We had the Kraft family down for dinner on Saturday. That was a blast!!

My friend Olivia got to stay till today, she had to go home. We had an awesome time, watching movies, panting our finger nails, & just hanging out... sooooo much fun!!!!!! =) Olivia borrowed a shirt from Hattie so us girls could all match for church! We played v-ball later in the afternoon, and stayed up late talking!! Altogether I had a BLAST!!!!!!

Thanks!

By the way, thanks to everyone who has commented. I was so surprised to see them. Thank you! I appreciate it! =)

We Love U Clay!

Cam Joe!

Camie doing...

flips!

I just feel like posting random things, but I don't feel like writing about them. So don't be surprised if all you see in the future is random pictures and nothing that explains them. LOL! =D

These pics were taken sometime in the last two weeks. ENJOY!

Singing is FUN!

This morning we found out that we had the slot for evening special music, so we spent the afternoon getting a song prepared. We asked the Mounts to help us out. It went Great!!! The triplets did an awesome job, I'm so proud of them. =) Thanks to the Mount guys for helping us out, we owe you one!

Football & Life

Parker, very cute

Josh Mount, Parker, Joe Mount, Bryan Russell, & Becker

A few days ago Dad was watching a football game, Parker wanted to look the part! Earlier a few of us kids had gone over to our neighbor's (the Russells), and Parker... well being Parker somehow found football pads that were his size and asked Bryan if he could have them, of course he said yes they couldn't fit him any more! Parker was so happy, he went home to show them off to Dad. When Dad heard that Parker was looking for a big shirt to put over the pads, he got out his old high school uniform and helped spiff him up, and that's all it took to get both of them into team spirit! Lol! I think he looks so cute!!! Mom thinks he needs a hair cut, just what a Mom would think! ;)

I have been really busy with life. Having a set of 4 year old triplets at the bottom will always keep anyone busy. =) My parents "who are the best" allowed Hattie (my older sister) & I to get texting a few weeks ago! I have had so much fun texting so many friends that I don't usually get to talk to... like Tyler, and my new friend Olivia, whom I look forward to getting to know better!
