I have been a featured member on SHUTTERFLY before with my nature book.

This time I have a featured project – SISTERS – check it out!

We spent the day with the Barden family for Christmas!

Brenda said this Santa used to be under the tree when she was a little girl …

Jared’s mom made this frame for us for Christmas – we LOVE it!

Jared’s mom got me these earrings for Christmas – I love these too!

Jared’s Aunt & Uncle came over for dinner – along with Cody.

The gifts that Jared’s grandparents got all of us …

We had a great Christmas day!

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE –

Jared and I spent the night at his parents – right next door to us – last night after church. We woke up this morning and had the traditional sticky buns then opened our gifts.

Jared and I are giving each other Schrute this year – so no gifts opened from each other. But we did get a Christmas surprise in the form of a new video and new pictures posted of little Schrute. Jared’s parents also got us a book about great danes!

Next Christmas we are looking forward to spending it with Schrute and hopefully another new addition by that time or the anticipation of one!

MAY YOU KNOW THE JOY OF THE LORD THIS CHRISTMAS!

Here are the new pictures of “little” Schrute –

WHAT A GREAT CHRISTMAS PRESENT!

I had a senior session with *C* on Saturday in the snow – so exciting – my first snowy senior session!

Thanks again *C* – it was a great session!

My parents are starting a new endeavor – Top O’ the Hill Farms – they are raising minis for milk. I am praying that it really takes off for them.

I mentioned earlier that my dad and I took a walk around their property with pictures to follow –

Such a beautiful place!

Schrute is now 4 weeks old and weighs 5 lbs 9 oz – he is growing fast. The breeders say he is going to be a big, beautiful dane.

We are so thankful for email and being able to see him grow. I have no idea how big he will be when we get him – so it’s nice to see him while he’s little.

One month and one day until we go pick him up!

Last Friday I walked home after our snowstorm and took a few pictures on the way …

We drove to Athens Friday and spent the weekend with my parents – the pictures I posted earlier.

My dad and I took a walk around their property – some of it – and  I took some winter shots – to be posted later. After our walk my dad stopped to say hello to their dog Buddy.

Jared and I left on Monday to come back to Mansfield and happened to see Chuck hit 8000 miles!

This past Friday we had another snowstorm and the clinic closed early. Amy and I had planned on making cookies Sunday afternoon but decided to move it up to Friday afternoon since we weren’t going to be at work. *E* and I rolled and cut out the cookies while Amy manned the oven and the mixing. *A* and *M* ran around and tried to clean up flour off the floor and do the dishes for us.

We made about 8 dozen cookies – *E* had so much fun helping out. Then we cuddled up on the couch and watched Cinderella until Jared came to pick me up. The *E* family asked us to go sledding with them that night – but Jared didn’t have any snow clothes – looks like what they had didn’t fit either.

We bundled up and had a great time. Mara and Mary came over to play ROCK BAND with us and introduce us to Mary’s dog – Chai. Chai is a great dane and we wanted to see what it would be like to have a full grown dane in the house – it will be FUN!

Saturday morning I had a senior session – which I will post later – and then Jared and I ran to Wellsboro to get his license renewed.

Jared and I went to his company’s Christmas dinner at the Antler’s last night – and then today we went to church and Lamb’s Creek for brunch – a great end to good weekend!
