Christmas at Grandma'

Well we really did have a Christmas Party, and Denise and Jeff gave me a new camera ... I made sure to put it on the TV stand so it would be handy... But you can guess that I remembered it AFTER the party... So no pictures...
I painted a Santa for each of my children....

Today we went to Phil and Amy's Ward to see little Liberty Danielle Harris given a name and a blessing by her daddy.... Phil gave a beautiful blessing... You'd think he was an old pro not just a 1st time Daddy..... She looked beautiful and if you'll check their sites you will see pictures soon... I again ran off without a camera.
Yes.... It's going in my purse now.

Jumped on the arplane, hopped on the METRA and was at Amber and Tadds just an hour after landing..... We had a great visit just getting reacquainted... I haven't been there since Maya was a baby..
The children are growing up so fast... Maya is already reading some words and writing her numbers to 70... Sooo smart.... Harrison is a confident and capable "little man" he is not afraid to try anything and can do anything he sets his mind to. I'm not sure if he will be a photographer, a construction worker (loves going to Home Depot with his dad) or a Chef... But whatever he decides to do he will do it well.
Henry is just a sweetheart he loves his Mom,and Dad, brother and sister, and even wanted hugs from Great Grandma.... Who was more than happy to oblige him...
It's hard to imagine little Amber being such a beautiful and capable Mom. Time flies too fast. I wish I had gotten pictures of Tadd wrestling with his children, bathing them, folding clothes (Yes,I said folding clothes) and eating all the nasty, nasty jelly beans... Oh! I almost forgot the fun trip to Jelly Belly Shipping .... 3 billion Jelly beans waiting to go everywhere...
