Lots of happy times with the family! I decided to clean out my camera card to get it ready for the new year. We are so thankful for all of our blessings!

Eli is Grandpa's 'cup of tea! Although he might be a little startled at Grandpa's expression.

At Thanksgiving, the Fab Four oldest get in some video and Capri Sun time. L-R: Moses Morton, Calvin Range, Emerald Morton, Isaac Range.

So far, no snow to speak of- just a smattering last week, but it was gone in hours.

Candace got some help with her birthday candles. She was 24 on December 14th. My '2' candle wouldn't light, so we subbed in two regular ones. She is not 114 years old.

Phoebe helped too!!!

Isaac's birthday party. He was four on December 5. (these pictures are NOT in order) Eli, wearing the theme Spiderman shirt, gets a chuck under the chin from Josh Range, while being held by Amanda Range.

Happy 4th birthday, Isaac!

I will never forget this birthday cake - ever. After much red dye making the icing, and putting a 'spider web' on it, I loaded it in the back of the van, supposedly in a safe place, but we had to brake a little suddenly on the trip- making the cake slide all the way up to the front seats. Some of the icing got skinned- which wasn't what we had planned. But there was a cake-there were candles and a little boy turning four, so it was all good!
