God Bless Us Everyone

A Little friendly home run derby with my brothers.











Here we are enjoying the sweet swinging memories of childhood.








Everyone was invited to the great feast, but Alexis was the only one who responded.








Here we have Mary and Joseph from the Wiseman Nativity Reenactment. We had a few camera problems, but more or less we have the whole thing on tape. We can show it to you sometime, it will be a real treat. My brother Luke had some choice scenes as the various innkeepers.








Most people looked pretty happy on that blessed Christmas morning. We had to get up at approximately 6 am, maybe even earlier. My nephews were told they could wake everyone up at 6:30...they're still working on the whole time telling thing.




My niece Gabrielle got this little play kennel that had a bunch of cats in it. Amy didn't have many presents this year so she adopted the lonely cats and gave them all names. I guess she is embracing her future as that weird old lady with all the cats.






We escaped for a little bit on Christmas day to the park. My mom had this picnic table dedicated to my brother Adam after he died so we had some friendly hiker taker our picture on the table.





Here is the 27 week picture. Alivia is moving pretty much all day every day now. She is going to be very active for sure. She always stops kicking when I touch the belly though, so I am hoping that will carry over into real life. Whenever I pick her up she is just going to fall asleep immediately.
