Christmas 2011

On Dec. 18th, Maddie was able to dress up as a nativity character for her Sunday School class. She chose to be an angel.

Tyler wanted to dress up for his Sunday School class, too. I told him that he would probably be the only one in his class dressed up, but he didn't care, he still wanted to dress up as a king. :)

Christmas Eve at Todd's brother, Kevin's house. He has a new tree that is very pretty.

We had a putting tournament in Kevin's new game room. Here I am taking my putts.............I won the tournament, so I will have to defend my title next year. :)
