Preparing For Christmas

We thought it would be fun to decorate the inside and outside of our house for Christmas because we can! I put up the lights on the outside which was a first for me and it made me appreciate my brother Loren's artistic ability that he used at home, his looked much better.
So you can see a little bit what it looks like at night.
Daddy's little girl.
Mama's little airplane. Dad, do you like the jacket? ;)
Great-Grandma Russell's wreath.
We bought a little tiny tree but discovered we had more ornaments than we thought (and heavier ones than we thought, our poor little tree). But we had fun listening to Christmas music and decorating our tree as a family.

Busy Busy

Dad and Anne watching the very disappointing BYU vs U of U game. So sad, you can see it in Anne's expression :)
Our little doll.
Snuggling with her new teddy bear from Sheri.
We are very thankful we were able to spend Thanksgiving weekend with family. Both my sisters and parents and Zac's brother and sister-in-law were able to visit. We had a fun-packed house! Anne enjoyed meeting her uncles and aunts and Grandpa Hebe! :) Here's Anne with Auntie Jennifer.
Mam and her sleepy people.
Grandpa Hebe and Ona (as he likes to call Anne).
Auntie Michelley!
My bottle! Some new discoveries and milestones in the last couple weeks have been Anne's reaching abilities. She's starting to reach for objects and enjoys batting at her jungle gym. She also rolled over from her tummy to her back! She had a cheering audience for that one!
We don't have any pictures of Anne in her blessing dress and other fun pictures from the weekend, so if family could email us some of those we'll post them up here for everyone to see. Thanks!
