First up...Book club. I especially like our book club meetings in December because we do a white elephant book exchange.
I'm bummed we never got a group picture. Oh well. (I just want to point out Emily what a good friend I am...I never got a decent candid shot of you and I refrained from putting the ones I had on here.) :)
Next...
Our favorite Christmas tradition since moving to Washington is going to the Festival of Nativities. It is amazing the amount of beautiful nativities that people donate each year for this special weekend. Again, we didn't take pictures of the nativities. While in that room we are too busy ooohing and aaahing over what we see. I did take some pictures of the kids dressing up in the children's room where EVERYTHING is a "please touch" kind of thing.
Look closely, Carley is hidden in the donkey costume.
Lastly, was Lauren's birthday. Up first is Lauren opening presents at home on her actual birthday. Kenny did an intro for Lauren on his trumpet...too cute!
The next day, Saturday, Lauren had a party at Chuck E Cheese's.
Lauren getting crowned by Chuck.
Lauren hit it big in the ticket booth.
Happy 7th Birthday Lauren! We love you!
Well, all caught up!
Stay tuned for pictures from our Arizona Christmas trip. I'm so excited I can hardly stand it!!! Hopefully I'll have pictures up before February. he he he

Oh, I love this whole post. The book club pictures were fun for me to see--I recognize so many people. And what a fun gift exchange. And give Lauren a huge "happy birthday!" from us. All the pictures were great--her expressions tell it all. She is the best little girl! I love that she lost a tooth the day before. VERY cool. The Chuck E Cheese party looks SOOOO fun. I've always thought that would be a great party!
Karen, you are a great friend! Thanks for no bad shots of me. Do I need to check your facebook account to make sure none made it there? Guess I'll have to get my own account to find out huh? The party looks fun. Kaitlyn had a blast. I can't wait to hear about your trip as well. Have fun and enjoy the warmth!
Happy Birthday Lauren!!! What a fun party too!
Happy Birthday Lauren! And I hope you have a very fun, sunny time in AZ. Please bring back some sun for us!
