Lee opened a talking ornament that spoke "love" words in FRENCH!

He was trying to get mom to steal it... and she got the giggles.

But then in the end she stole it and was going to bring it to work and share it with he lady friends in her office. They would get a kick out of it.

That is my little boy...

This is my little James. He is such a cute little guy. He was the BEST baby. Easy going, happy, obsessed with trucks, motorcycles and balls. He was so blonde and had big beautiful blue eyes. Now he is 18 years old. Still loves trucks, motorcycles and balls. He is still easy going, happy and fun to be with. He is starting his last semester of his senior year. Then he will be gone on his mission.  Time is going way to fast. Wish he could be little for just one day!

 First day of Kindergarten at Noah Webster.

setting up our Christmas cheer!

 We are a little late getting up our Christmas cheer. But we will be keeping it up a little longer this year, because our Hermana Coon will be coming home on January 2, 2015. We all wanted her to be home for Christmas. So we have decided to celebrate our Christmas on January 3. The day after she gets home. As of today she will be home in 2 weeks.  I only have 2 more letters from my sweet daughter as a missionary. I am going to enjoy and embrace the next 2 weeks.

 Grandma Dayley gave each on her grandchildren a hallmark ornament for their very first Christmas as a baby. Annie and Hannah are holding their "First Christmas" ornament.

Christmas Piano Recital

 Annie played the dance of the sugar plum fairies!  Both girls had their pieces memorized! 

 Hannah played Frosty the snowman at Ms. Julie's piano recital.
