Christmas 2009

Sorry I cant add caption under all the pictures my blog is doing something funny with the pictures... It will not show me the pics until I post. It shows a whole bunch of weird characters and letters sorry. I will try to get someone at work to help me. Until then, hope you can figure it out.
We had a great Christmas. We had lunch with Ryans family on Christmas Eve and dinner with my family. We also went to Christmas eve service at church. What was I thinking to that??? Cooper was anything but quiet. We will not be doing that again for a few years. I hate that because we love to go to church on Christmas eve. Cooper woke up the next morning to find gifts from Santa he loved his tricycle. He would ride it as long as we push him. We had family over for lunch, eighteen to be exact. Ryan made his famous lasagna. It was delicious as always. Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas as well.

First visit with Santa

Cooper had his first visit with Santa tonight. He did great he actually appeared to like him. Plus the candy cane he gave him helped a lot.














Cant forget Cooper with his girls. These are my best friends girls. He loves them! The youngest actually gets upset on the Fridays that Cooper does not come to stay with them while I work. They were so sweet together with Santa.

Santa Cooper

Is he cute or what? I know these are the kind of pictures he will hate me for one day but I just couldn't help myself. Isn't this what parents are supposed to do?

Question Answered

So I know everyone has had the fun experience of something getting into your garbage can and scattering trash all over your yard for you to clean up. You may have wondered what it was?

Was it a.....
A.) Raccoon
B.) Oposum
C.) Your Dog





























Answer C was correct I looked outside today to see trash all over my yard. When I went outside to get on-to the German Shepard who was eating the trash as I came back by the trash can it began to move. Yes that was a little alarming then a small pink nose popped out. I couldnt help but laugh until I had to pick up all the trash. ( :

What was I thinking?

I put the Christmas tree up today as usual with the breakable/ choke hazard ornaments. I then showed it to Cooper after he got up from his nap. He was so excited. He walked straight to it and began to take the ornaments off to admire each ball before taste testing them.




























Don't we all wish we could still experience Christmas through a child's eyes. I can not wait to enjoy the season with Cooper as he joins us for all of our traditions and in the years to come as we teach him the true meaning of Christmas.
