Christmas Eve 2012

Leave a reply
Jack’ee and Jason came over for Christmas Eve. We ate lasagna, opened a couple of gifts, and read “Teach the Children.”
Jon had Jack’ee for my sides gift exchange this year. He got her a gift card to a favorite store. She loved it.
 
Jack’ee and Jason got the kiddos new socks (per my request.). I have been informed that socks are not a cool Aunt and Uncle gift to give. So they also got the children “FUN” gifts too.
We did miss Aunt Linda’s Christmas Eve party. LOTS. But our evening was still special and nice. I think I am going to have to learn how to make Linda’s Navajo tacos and scones though…

Playset. Part 2

 Just want to say how frustrated I am with Blogger. It’s doing funky things to my pictures. 🙁
Anyway. Tis done! And we ALL LOVE IT so very much! The playset that is. It’s a bright and cheerful pop of color in our otherwise drab backyard.
 This is a picture of the top deck and bench. This picture (well all of the pictures.) loosk fine on my computer, but Blogger is being icky and doing this to it.
 Jon can stand upright in the tower. The roof is so tall. Well in the middle anyway.
 Uncle Josh being an awesome Uncle to the children.
I really love that the children have something to do in the back yard now. They have been out there EVERY day since the Part 1 post.
Best Birthday present EVER!

Pass along cards

2 Replies

I am so excited that our pass along cards came. I spent a good while last night stuffing envelops with a handful and Christmas card last night. They are in the mail and on their way to many of you.

Pass along cards are basically a business card with our contact information letting people know that we want to adopt.

What to do with them? Where to leave them?

Please give them to anyone you want to. If you are not comfortable actually handing our card to someone leave them behind on a counter or table as you are leaving.

Ideas for places to give them out or leave them are (really anywhere is good.):

Doctor offices (ANY Dr.)
Restaurants
Salons
Church leaders
Waitresses
Hairstylist
Hospitals
Nurses
Friends

As always we love and appreciate all the love, support, and help we have received on this journey so far. Thank you.
