pictures

Sunday afternoon we celebrated Christmas with Hubby’s side of the family, and as we do every year, we took lots of pictures before opening presents. Picture-taking occurred after too much food (and during too much food, really, because we snacked all afternoon and right up until dinnertime) but before the Christmas story, before Christmas songs and before the opening of presents. It was a big day.

Our little family. Yes, G has a black eye and Little Missy thought she was smiling. But here we are, my happy little group:

Here’s the Fox boys with Ma and Pa Fox. Apparently those Fox boys were a force to be reckoned with back in the day. Can’t you see the restrained power oozing from this picture?

I don’t know what Ang is doing here, but I love it because it looks like she’s directing us sisters-in-law in a vocal performance. Which we were not about to sing and she is not the slightest bit bossy, so that’s why this picture is hilarious. And I’m sorry that it’s blurry:

But here we are looking normal and pretty:

Some grandparents who are awfully proud of all their grandkids:

Apparently I am descended from royalty. Hayley fills you in here.

anniversary

I am so grateful for our Father in heaven, who came through on His promise to always guide those who seek Him. We didn’t know if we wanted more kids, if we could handle more kids. But He knew.

Sunday was the 101st day of Baby Chickadee living outside my belly, which also happened to be the anniversary of the day she most likely started growing in my belly. The day the miracle of life began, when one cell divided into two, into four, into eight, again and again and again until we got her:

The perfect addition to the three who already made my heart explode with love:

My brother-in-law quit his job and started his own business. We’re pretty excited.
