Christmas Eve at the Clark's

We always spend our Christmas Eve at the Clark Family house. The girls had a great time playing with their two cousins that they do not get to see all that often. They got some great gifts that they enjoy playing with. We also always enjoy the little hens that gammie makes every year and the girls actually ate them this year too.Jordyn got a swimming baby that she loves!

Hayven got a new laptop that she loves typing on.

Jordyn loved riding the horsey at her cousin's house!
Hayven enjoyed it as well.

The new swingset

This was the first night that we got the swingset. Even though it was 30 degrees outside the girls still wanted to be out there playing as much as possible. They cried when it was time to come back inside because they wanted to swing and slide more. Needless to say that are going to love their Christmas present from Pops and Nana. Hayven says "Thank you Pops and Nana!"

Christmas at the Halpain's

We had a great time at my grandparents lake house this weekend hanging out with all of our cousins. These are just a few pictures that we took of the family together. The kids were having fun in an empty room that Pops had because there was so much room for them to run around in there and hang out together. It was a nice place for us to have them because there was nothing in there that they could really hurt themselves with.
Jordyn loves her cousin McKinlee!

Trying to get all the grandkids to sit together and smile.
The whole family minus my mom and uncle who were taking the pics.



Hayven enjoyed singing on her new microphone/keyboard that she got. Here is just a short video of her great singing. She truly may be a singer some day, we will see!

Hayven and Jordyn had a great time at the end of the night when their friend Jared arrived and they were able to play with him for a long time before heading home.

Christmas Family Photos 2008

We had our first pictures done with a professional photographer and they turned out great. She has her own Santa there (even though we have seen Santa several other times). We did get some great ones with Santa though because they got to spend so much more time with him and get used to him. I am using several of these pictures in our Christmas card, but I did not get to order them until late and so many of you will see them before you get the cards. I just could not wait to put them on the blog though because I think that they are so great and I want everyone to see how beautiful the girls look in their Christmas dresses. Enjoy and Merry Christmas! I finally got one of them both smiling with Santa!

HO, HO, HO!

She loved playing with these Christmas decorations.

I just love this picture of Hayven!

Her cheesy smile, but still looking cute!

She actually smiled with Santa!

Hayven telling Santa that she wants a toy for Christmas!

It was hard to get a picture with them both smiling, but I like this one.
This was my favorite family picture!

I like this picture with us both playing with the girls!

Thanksgiving 2008

This was a great week with the family. We spent Thanksgiving out in Rockwall with the Halpain family. On Friday, we were off to Waxahachie to spend the day with the Clark family. It was a fun time, but the girls were ready to take a rest after the weekend and just wanted to stay home. Hope that you enjoy the pics of the girls changing more and more everyday.Hayven and Daddy cutting onions.

Look how big that I am mommy "take my picture!"

Sorry you have to turn your computer sideways because I could not figure out how to turn them around. But, I just think that they are cute pictures of them dancing around.
