I put up my Christmas tree this weekend! I am so ready for the holidays to come!

I was having lots of fun taking Claire's picture.

She didn't really like her paws on the box, but she was good and stayed still...for a second.
This is her beggin' for the gift!

There's a surprise under the tree! My little baby!

A little gift among the others.
This was taken while in Alabama for Jon's grandpa's funeral.

Kevin, Jodi, Paul, Myra, Marybeth, Issac, Greg, Steve, Brooklyn, and I all joined a soccer team this winter. So far we have a smashing record of one win!

This is me wondering what I'm suppose to be doing. Seriously, I am having lots of fun playing.

My cousin Stephenie's youngest boy Chase. He is so adorable. He really loves those two middle fingers!

Well, you can't say I didn't warn you in my last post....I told you it would be a couple of months before I would probably blog again. Actually, I really didn't think it would be this long either.
So, a little update . I have started another class....(An Algebra class!!!) Jon finished his four CPA tests and found out he passed all four of them!! Jon's grandpa died and we took a flying trip to Alabama. The trip went very well in spite of the circumstances. I was able to meet all of the Avery family for the first time and I got to see Josh for the first time since he's been married. After the trip, I helped with Rachael's baby shower and she now has finished the baby's nursery. I was not able to get any pictures on my camera of the shower, but as soon as I get them from a friend I will post them. I was quite pleased with how the decor turned out.
So, not much has happened since I last blogged...maybe that's why I avoid updating and would rather stick to being a 'lurker'.
