My kiddos

Happy Holidays Everyone!
This is the pic we used on our card. I love it. We were in Cali for Thanksgiving. I feel so blessed by these little people. Thanks Santa... but I have all I need! What I want is for pgn, cna, renap, use etc etc etc to get a move on.

As I sit at home on my snowday (with 6 inches of snow out the window!), I wish I was there on that sandy beach! What a gorgeous family!!!

You are blessed with beautiful children - thanks for sharing your pic.

I keep praying for the day that we don't have 'want is for pgn, cna, renap, use etc etc etc to get a move on.'

Happy Holidays!

Of course I remember meeting you Julie! We both lived the nightmare of expired prints! Remember how it felt like we would never survive? How are the boys? A distant memory! And Ana MH, you were on the plane down from Miami! ~that was when you were going to meet Almari!

Aaah, yes, the expired prints fiasco!! I just remember, before I met you, that I was admiring your Petunia Picklebottom bag. LOL!

The boys are amazing, amazing, amazing and out of this !

We are talking about going skiing - where do you live in CO again?

Oh, cool!! Breckenridge is our fave. We are just trying to decide if the boys are old enough yet...2 and 2.5.

I will definitely let you know!
