Yuletides

Merry Christmas! We had a more professional family picture taken, but Brian was having fun with the cropping feature of Picasa and "accidentally" cropped me out. But I think the lighting in this picture is kind of cool. It is actually a historic picture because all three of my daughters' hair is done.


Here is Gwen on Christmas morning, modeling some of her stocking stuffers. Notice the layered necklaces. Since this picture was taken Gwen has also started to wear Ruby's necklace she got in her stocking, so with three necklaces she is starting to resemble Mr. T with all that bling. Also notice, at Christmas in our house, pants are optional.


Here is Ruby with her stocking stuffers that Gwen will soon sneakily accumulate into her own jewelry collection. The clothes and jewelry wars are already beginning.


Merry Christmas everyone! This may be the closest thing you get to a Christmas card this year, so we love you and miss you, and hope you're enjoying the Holidays!

I'm a Monterrey Eagle!!!


I have lots of reasons to celebrate! For one, my last day of student teaching was yesterday! The next and exponentially more important because of the financial implications--I have a job starting on Monday!!! Woo-hoo. I am now a 2nd grade teacher at Monterrey Elementary School!
