This Is Our Christmas Card

We had a great 2010. We all played hard. We all had a pile of fun and we are all very much looking forward to 2011.

The little girls started off small but they are not so little anymore.

 Hops & Barley is still full of giggles and sillies.

 Maxman is not taller than JEM yet, but he is getting there fast.

The big kids and little kids still give me lots of snuggles.

 

Avo loves pockets. Having pockets in her pants or coat makes her very, very happy.

 Camo has lots more hair now and it is so curly. Curlier than anyone else's in the family.

 Crazy dancing

 Bike trailering

 Maxman hitching a ride to school.

 H&B on one of her first real bike rides without training wheels.

 Swinging together on our new backyard play structure (thank you neighbours).

 Our basement looks much better now. This was probably the worst day.

 Dad still gets lots of cuddles too.

 Big girl biking. 

 Beach fun.

 Backyard campout.

 Ice cream in the hot, hot sun.

 They paused briefly and I snapped a picture of them together.

Now they are two!

 She plays hockey now just like her brother and her dad.

Christmas request - a pink hockey jersey.

 Halloween - the first year the little girls went out and got to eat some candy.

 The clan.

 Maxman, Avo, Camo, Hops & Barley

 Silliness is all around.

 Maxman

He is 7 now. He is in Grade 2. He loves hockey and reading and is very tall.

Avo and Camo

They are almost 2.5 and think they can do everything the big kids can do.

They are best friends and giggle really hard when they are alone together. 

Hops & Barley

She is 5 now. She is in Senior Kindergarten.

She loves to play with her friends, draw, make up stories and is a very cool kid.

Playing with his buds.

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.
