The Season To Be Jolly

'Tis the season to be Jolly!

We decorated our tree before we left for Thanksgiving. Naomi was in bed, but the rest of the kids had a great time!

Don't you just love this picture of Elliot (totally posed ;-))

Maggie just can't get enough of the tree. She L.O.V.E.S. it. She is always taking the ornaments off, but puts them right back on when asked.

Yep, that's as good as it's gonna get as far as smiles go!

BE JOLLY!

We went to Pocatello for Thanksgiving and had a great time, besides Maggie throwing up for 24 hours and Naomi getting an ear infection. I forgot to take pictures most of the time, surprise, surprise. I got to see "New Moon" with mom and Abby. We laughed loudly in the most inappropriate places, it was great. Ray, David, and dad got to go shooting, yes with guns. We had what we will affectionately call the Christmas tree debacle of 2009, when we got our permit to go cut down our own tree but failed to find any Christmas trees after driving for a really long time! We did get to partake of some really beautiful scenery, though! Thanks for the great Thanksgiving, mom and dad!!

Beautiful Arbon Valley, ID

(See any Christmas trees around here? Yea, me either.)
