"Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God, But only he who sees takes off his shoes, The rest sit 'round it and pluck blackberries."

A Few Christmas Pictures

We spent the holidays with the family in Vegas. E and M had a great time. Mom enjoyed the extra sleeping the girls did in the small-windowed room. (No Target lights invading those darkened walls!) Here's a few pictures of the fun we had.

M investigating the manger. Later she spent some time unwrapping Baby Jesus. She loves any sort of doll right now. Especially if she can poke its eyes out.


E looking... angelic....

The angel and the shepherd. Okay, so the binky is in the way, but her her smile is much cuter in this picture than in the one without a binky.


M's new riding toy. She can go backwards and likes to lift her leg on and off.

A and E checking out Grandma Paula's new car. E was not the greatest driver ever. Flower beds beware!!!

Looks like fun....I am not surprised that E is not the best driver...I don't know why...just not surprised.
