more christmas fun

O.k. so after begging and stealing from other peoples sites and computers I finally have more pictures to post and talk about. Yes my camera is still broken and I have been reduced to using my ultra nice cannon rebel film camera. Sigh. What a sad world for me. :-) Anyway I just felt like I needed to include some picture from Alabama that way all family is properly represented here. We don't need any blog spot custody battles going on. Anyway this picture is just here because I am in it with my favorite sister in the world. And even more amazing is that we both look good. So it was deemed web worthy. Austin on the other hand has a mouth full of food, but that is too bad for him because he is cute all the time and can just deal with looking funny in this picture in therapy when he is older.

Oh yeah, I forgot I uploaded this one. Yeah for my family in a kitchen.

So here we are in Alabama where we all had the great idea of having Santa come over. We all said "oh yes, Austin would love a big scary man dressed all in red that he has never seen in his whole life and is expected to love instantly." Needless to say he spent the whole time crying and doing his best to become a permanent attachment to mine and Grandma Smiths shoulder.

We made up for it with free daddy rides for the rest of his life.

Christmas morning was redicoulusly fun for a three year old. Here he is showing Grandma all about how to hammer and make a lot of noise.

and grandpa got the finer points in race car driving.

So this is really cool. Dan has gotten into wood working lately and he made this box for his Dad. He has made really awesome book shelves for me and two more boxes for my parents. I guess when alls you do is stare at numbers all day you really need to make boxes.

So there you have it. We do have other family in world, who we miss all the time and are seriously trying to get to move to Texas. But they only listened to the move part and forgot the Texas. So Grandma and Grandpa Alabama are going to soon be Grandma and Grandpa Utah. hmmm doesn't sound as exotic to me.
