All I want for Christmas is my 2 front teeth! Only 2 days late...Emerson relunctantly lost her 2 front teeth on the same night-Dec. 27. They have been loose for quite a while so I convinced her to let me at them. She really did well and was glad after the fact. Doesn't she look different? She talks with a little lisp, but besides that, she has not missed a beat. She was thrilled to be able to call her grandparents and Madison-her 7 year old cousin-who dropped to the ground while on the phone with her-she was so shocked! She is really growing up!

Christmas pictures-I did not get the best this year but here they are. We stayed at home and loved not traveling for once. We had my whole family in our house for 3 days and it was a blast. We give thanks for each and every family member and we are grateful how each of you brings us closer to the Lord everytime we are together. Praise the Lord for the birth of Jesus and may 2007 be a year of us putting Him first in everything we do.

Here is our Christmas card. My friend Amy Headington is a photographer and took this for us this summer. Check out her stuff at www.imagesofgracephoto.com. I have not updated this in so long because my computer crashed and it is such a pain to download all my software. Anyway, we are looking forward to our first Christmas at home with my family. God has really blessed us in 2006 and we praise him for all that is good in our family. If you are reading this, you are a blessing to us!
