christmas 2010

   waiting with great anticipation for grandpa and grandma t. to arrive at our house for christmas eve.


after church... each girl needed to be sure to have a chance holding butterscotch

trying desperately to a get a clear picture with all of us smiling. after two different occasions, different people taking the pictures, and twenty or so tries... this is the best we could get

happy birthday jesus cake 2010 - red velvet

butterscotch loving her new wreath bone

save the best for last. we totally got kenya this year. her little heart desired a new 5th generation ipod, but we firmly let her know that it just wouldn't happen. she was completely disappointed after opening package after package of mostly clothes (and me reminding her to be thankful for what she has and that you don't need most of what you want). little did she know we got her big time. does she seem excited?
