Who Is This Child?

I have no memory of this face...



We haven't figured out which ancestor this one resembles.

Taylor Clan

Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.

Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them...
Psalm 127: 3, 4 & 5

Advent, Advent...

Advent, Advent, ein Lichtlein brennt,
Erst eins, dann zwei, dann drei, dann vier,
dann steht das Christkind vor der Tür.

Gwen loves her rocking horse.





Thank You Aunt Liz!

Gingerbread Houses

On Friday the 5th we continued our new tradition of making gingerbread (graham cracker) houses. This is only our second year of doing this but it is lots of fun for the kids, and maybe someday we will be able to use them as decoration for at least one day.

Gwen covered her house with "snow" after she had eaten all gummy bears and M&M's on her side of the table.This is what most of the houses looked like at the end of the day.

The kids had a great time and were only a little bit wired after eating all that sugar.

Hat Part 2

The finished product...




Hat #2..not quite done as she still needs a tie on the other side.
Hat #3 was supposed to be for Sam, but I forgot that his head is as big as mine. So this one will be a birthday present for a friends daughter who is the same age as Gwen.

Thank you Peggie for starting me on this latest frenzy. I'm having a great time and actually producing something useful.

Wake Up

We've had this new alarm clock for about 4 months now.




It usually goes off at about 6:00 am

Man is it loud.
