Christmas

For Christmas Abigail and I went to my parents. Lucky for me I was able to go up and take part in the fun on Christmas Eve and beat the snow. Abbie after spending a couple of days with her grandparents slept in on Christmas morning. She had a great Christmas. In spite of the snow my sister got she said screw it I'm going to Joplin! haha okay okay.. I added some words in there. It was a lot of fun. The kids got to go out and play on Saturday. I think overall they got along and had a great time. :) Here are a few captured moments

my girl looking well beyond her years...




panties.. a Christmas is not complete without getting a pair of undies somewhere in the mix




These pictures were taken by a camera my mother has had for years. On there she has never downloaded any of the pics. We downloaded them and I found some shots on there I just had to share.




sorry.. its on its side.. I guess you'll either need to change your screen or laptop on its side or just tilt your head.. haha.. the choice is yours. I think Abbie was about 2 1/2 in that one. Such innocence. She is actually wearing a dress that my mother wore.


The next two are from her third birthday




Abbie and her Pa.




The Monday after Christmas I had to go back to work, but due to the all the snowbthe daycare was closed. Mariah was like my knight in shining armor.. except she is a woman who according to my boss looks just like me.. and she wears usually jeans with with long-sleeved tshirts.. Instead of a horse she can blazing in on two wheels.. haha.. okay not so much. She took Abbie and let her play outside and her first sledding experience in their backyard. My duaghter, I don't see ever saying no to anything that contains adventure in someway. Last summer she went with Mariah's family to Jason's parents' lakehouse and just wanted to go faster on the ski doo.. I was informed the gas was down all the way.. anywho.. I was told Abbie went down on the makeshift sled of a trash can lid about 20 times. I was told that the kids had fun and JonJon and Abbie got along really well which is nice. I heard they even shared some of their toys. I like to hear that. Thanks Mariah and Jason for letting Abbie come over to play! Jason you did great with the two big kids and the snowman was great! My sister has some really cute pics on her blog. I can't steal pictures off of shutterfly.. so.. hence the ones only with my child.







here is the little girl after the fun in the cold..
