Back Home in Indiana


Sadly we didn't take very many pictures over Christmas, and with good reason. We all got sick! First it was Gracie, then Scottie got it, and then I finally got it. Curt was also very sick. So it wasn't a very merry Christmas. But at least we got to be together, plus we got to see Kelsey and meet her boyfriend Jackson. This is a picture of Gracie and Stuart opening presents. Gracie still wasn't feeling great. But that didn't stop her from loving her new jungle tree thing. It came with all kinds of animals and a little jeep for the rangers to drive around in. We had to drag her away from it so she could go to bed.

Here we are at Mom's house. Gracie is in the middle of the mountain of presents. Every year mom says it's going to be a small Christmas, and every year it takes 10 minutes just to pass the presents out! Small Christmas - yeah right. This is Grace with her Fisher Price digital camera. She has been wanting one of these for quite a while. Now she can stop grabbing ours and taking random useless pictures. If you look at her camera now you will see a large amount of pictures of books, knees, computer screens, half of Kingleys face, and on and on...

She also got her beloved horse Jackson . He is the horse that belongs to her American Girl doll Nicki. He is huge, and of course she has wanted to start sleeping with him. He takes up so much room, but she doesn't mind. Can you see Curt in the background? Unfortunately that's about as far as he got that day. Well, after he came back from the ER. Scottie only came down to open presents. Then he changed into his new p.j pants he got from mom and went back up to bed. It was a lively day!

Here is Kelsey trying to save face on the Wii. She learned the hard way, along with everyone else that you can't beat Gracie in golf on the Wii. It is insane! As my fifeteen year old cousin Mason put it, "it's a humbling experience to play golf against Gracie." You go girl!!!
