Rylee with her friends at the Branch Christmas party. This was the only photo I took that night.
My friend Amy asked if I would hang out with her puppy for a bit while she was at work. I sent a her this picture of her sweet baby. Zoe was spayed the day before and her cone made her so pathetic.
Some of the girls decorated cookies at YW.
Delaney had a marvelous time.
I made stockings for our missionaries. I loved this kimono fabric!
Since our stockings all smelled so gross and mildewy, I made us new ones too. This is what I made for us. I had just enough of the red kimono fabric to make 7 stockings. And each kid picked a different backing- Marian wanted another kimono fabric backing, while Callie picked a super cute Japanese print. Delaney and Rylee chose Christmas patterns and Josh got Japanese cranes. Dan and I also did Christmas prints. They came out very cute.
Marian participated in the school's Spirit Week, and wore her jammies to school. I kind of love her!
We went to Dan's work party. It was pretty lame.So I didn't really take any pictures.
But they did have an awesome photo booth that we utilized and had a blast with.
Yes, we went through it several times and had fun with it.
And then Christmas could finally come, because Josh came home! He had a fabulous first semester of college and managed to have a smooth trip back to Okinawa. The girls were delighted to leave church a little early to pick him up. I wish I had gotten a picture of them as they flung the car doors open and leapt out at him with open arms. It was awesome.
