Christmas Fun: Visiting Santa

Bass Pro Shop






Funny story to go with this picture: As we were walking over to this tree (well, Chess was running) Chess fell down and the fake snow went all over her. She started to say, "Ohhhh, maaaan!" Apparently Jared and/or I say that a lot when something bad happens. It's really cute when Chess says it, and the fact that she knows when it's appropriate to say it. Now, whenever she sees this picture, she can't look at it without saying, "Ohhhh, maaaan!"








Yay - no crying! She kinda liked Santa, I think.




Chess was telling Santa about something. He was very sweet.

Yes, I fit my booty in the train.


So did Jared. Our legs were asleep after the ride.

Christmas Fun: Magical Nights of Lights

Christmas Fun: Tree Lighting

Christmas Fun: Decorating

Chess was good at putting the ornaments on. But we've learned that she's even better at taking the ornaments off.








I caught you unplugging the lights!


Who, me?

Sweet Baby

Lera has been such a fun baby to have in our home. She is so sweet and easy-going (mostly). She loves to be talked to and being held close. She is so wiggly, though, that she can be hard to hold sometimes! We have taken her so many places already in her short life, and she is always so good. Enjoy some pictures of her.
