My Abby's Christmas pictures

I thought I would share a few with everyone. Abby was home 2 years in July. She is truly the best thing that has ever happened in my life.

Beth, Abby is just beautiful! I love her curls--her hair has gotten so long!

I especially like the picture with the snowman she is holding.

I'm sure you all will have an exciting Christmas at your house!
