Jenna’s Baptism

Jenna was baptized the beginning of January by her father.  Tons of family and friends came to support her and we are thankful for them.  She was very excited and it was a very special day.  Dec and Beg Jan 12-13 015

Christmas 2012

Well, because I am writing this waaaay after it happened, I honestly cannot remember anything about Christmas last year.  I asked Ben and all he remembers is that we had a Charlie Brown Christmas Tree (sorry no pictures).  The thing was SAD looking!  It fell over on the first day (on top of me).  We had to use rocks to hold the tree stand in place and keep everything from falling over.  The branches still kept drooping and we had to use string to tie them up.  We almost had no room in our townhome for the tree so we had to squeeze around it every time we had to walk anywhere.  Dec and Beg Jan 12-13 002 Dec and Beg Jan 12-13 004_a Dec and Beg Jan 12-13 006 Dec and Beg Jan 12-13 011
