It's been a while...

Hi all,

It's been a while since I last posted. Lots going on. Here is a quick recap. Thanksgiving was great. We went to both sides of the family and enjoyed spending time together and giving thanks for all the wonderful things the Lord has blessed us with. We also enjoyed the extra time off from work and did some decorating for Christmas. Here are some photos.

First, we spent some time with Charlotte's buddy Kayden. These little girlies are so cute!

Then we went to Knott's Berry Farm...

Then mommy tried to get some fun shots of Charlotte...Call me crazy----but in this one shot of the 2 of us---I think she finally looks a lot like me.Wow---that didn't last long. She looks just like Raresh in this one.Here is a family shot from Thanksgiving.

I'm thankful for...
