This year’s Christmas was full of all kinds of FUN! We drove 19 hours to FL with two kids and with our newest addition, Daeo. We first stopped off in Jacksonville to celebrate my cousin, Nicole, and my 30th birthdays by having facials. And ladies it was wonderful. (Thank you Aunt Terry and Mom!) We took the kids to have their pictures taken at a mall and oh what fun that was. We had Rebekah 2 1/2, Elisha 2, Kaden 1 1/2 and Zeke 10 months. Either we are crazy or plain bored. It was fun and we made lots of memories! Here is a memory we will never forget. In the mall we went to a pet store. That was a trip b/c Kaden (who not only walks, but can RUN!) took off out of the pet store into the mall all by himself. Mean while as we are franticly searching for Kaden in a pet store during the Christmas RUSH….LOTS OF PEOPLE! Elisha was all about the other dogs (he didn’t like the cute one we picked out to pet). He want to see all of the dogs. Nicole is running through the store trying to find Kaden, I have Zeke on my hip while trying to keep an eye on Elisha and our stuff. And in the corner is faithful Rebekah, she is attending to the puppy that we choose to pet. So you can imagine how our outing went.

Our last evening in Jacksonville was spent at Aunt Terry and Uncle Dave’s house, we had an New England boiled dinner, yum yum. It was a pajama party. Then off to Tallahassee with Naomi (who flew in the night before). We saw all of our family. It is always good to see everyone, only I only have pics of one family member, Grandpa Jim. After Ben’s accident, there were no more shots taken. So if anyone would like to email some pics of the kids with ANY family at Christmas I would love to post them.
