Breakfast with Santa

This morning, we went to Breakfast with Santa at Fountainview Mansion in Auburn. The kids had a great time... especially seeing Santa arrive in a helicopter! They also got to decorate cookies, make a craft, eat a fabulous breakfast, and sit with Santa. I can't wait to see the pictures from the photographer.

Let the tackiness begin...

Allan always loves his tacky tree every year. This year, due to the baby stuff stacked in every square inch of our house, we didn't do a tacky tree. However, we still had our annual tacky ornament exchange at church. So much fun!

Allan decorated this tree for the party with his own personal ornaments. My favorite part is the leaning of the tree!
The winning ornament....
The runner up...

A few shots...

I have been putting off taking pregnancy pictures, but decided it was about time. I am 38 weeks tomorrow, and I only have one week to go. Here are some pictures of the kids and of me, too!

Now there are 5!

Several years ago, when I bought new stockings for all of us, I accidentally ended up with 5 (after exchanging designs, changing my mind, etc). One has been in the tub for years with the tag still on it. But, when we hung stockings yesterday, the 5th one made its appearance. Now there are five of us. I think there should have been all along.... we are complete! Only 2 weeks until Baby Pierce arrives. Thank you, God, for our blessings.

PBC Thanksgiving

We had our annual church Thanksgiving meal this week. I (again) stole the great pictures Amy took off of her blog. We had a great night.

PBC Baby Shower

A few Sundays ago, my wonderful church had a baby shower for our family. Of course, upon arriving, I realized I had no memory stick in my camera (these types of things happen to me often). Thank you Amy for the pictures!

Baby Shower at WHMC

My work, Women's Hope Medical Clinic, threw a fabulous baby shower for me and for our office manager, Karen. We are both due within about a week of each other. She is having a baby girl, and as we all know (and complain to me often about), we are having a "surprise." It was a great shower with wonderful women who serve God so faithfully at our center.
