It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas!!!

I am starting to lack in the posting department, so I will try and get things caught up today. Seems like we have been on the go for the past 2 or 3 weeks. We put up the tree a few weeks ago and Taylor had a ball. She proudly hung up her Elmo ornament...again and again and again! She loves playing with the ornaments and we have had to move the presents from underneath the tree to the bedroom. She hasn't tried opening them, but she has gotten the shaking thing down pat. She is still too young to really understand what is going on, but she can sure tell it's something special. Chris and I hung lights on the house and she looks out the windows every night and tells us all about the pretty lights and her Christmas tree. She has found that the snow globe we bought her plays music, again and again and again and loves the carry around Santa's bells. It sure is noisy and festive in our home, but we wouldn't have it any other way. We are so excited for Christmas this year... to see Taylor's excitement and joy will be worth all the anticipation and the wait...next year will be even better.

Rest In Peace, Yukon

Last Tuesday, 12/02/08, we had to make a tough decision about Yukon. He had taken a turn for the worse, wouldn't eat or drink and would hardly move, so Chris decided it was time to put Yuk down. It was a very hard thing for everyone involved. We were able to be with him as he left us and we are trying to find peace in knowing that he is out of pain and is in a better place. We sure miss him. So, everyone who has an animal, give them a big hug and enjoy everyday you have with them. We miss you, Yukon!!!
