Happy New Year!

Well, these little Oklahoma Children learned what cold really meant! When we got to Nebraska before Christmas, it was 5 degrees, with a wind chill I don't care to discuss! By the time we made it to South Dakota, it had warmed to the teens, and we had a lovely, light snowfall!
The kids went sledding at my Papa's hill. (These photos are taken BEFORE it all began....) Unlike the sledding in my day where we had to walk back up the hill (about 1/3 mile), my cousin hauled them up on the four-wheeler!
As you can see, Jenna has not yet gotten her wish of her two front teeth....she has a nice lisp going that we find pretty endearing.
Christmas was crazy and fun! My entire family was there, including 6 little ones. Santa made a visit to the kids, and was enormously popular with Wyatt!


We finished out the Christmas Craziness yesterday with the Curry Family. (Just in time to start thinking about birthdays....) Jenna cleaning up in the Barbie/Makeup Department, and Wyatt got a bunch of great trucks. The best moment was when Wyatt accidentally opened one of Jenna's gifts, and it was a Barbie Test. He smacked it with both fists and grunted in disgust....can't imagine why he didn't want it. He later found his Spider Man Tent, and as I write this, he is sound asleep in said tent on his floor.
Have a wonderful 2009!

Thanks for the update, girlie! I'm glad that you all had a great Christmas and am glad you got some use out of those winter coats. Now, think about us poor folk who have to endear that for the rest of forever, I'm afraid!!!

Miss you!
