Christmas 2010

Annual holiday ice skating...Claire actually got to skate this year!
Waiting for her turn, she loved it! Chris has to practically hold her up when skating so they had to take alot of breaks.

Jack ready to hit the ice



Caroline is a natural, no surprise. Everyone got to skate this year except me, Chris was afraid someone would run into me and knock me down!


Working hard on cookies for Santa..


Christmas Eve morning


Trying to get a decent Christmas picture, of course Claire was in no mood


All three kids were in a Christmas pageant at church this year on Christmas Eve. Claire was an angel, Jack sang in the choir and Caroline was a narrator.


Claire did not know what to think about it


Caroline in her role


Jack is not a big fan of singing but he hung in there and did a great job

The kids get to open one present on Christmas Eve from Nana. I love these priceless reactions to her gift, an ipod touch for both.


Nana always scores big!


Helping little sister open a present.


Christmas galore! The green jeep was from Nana to Claire.

Prank


Caroline loves to pull practical jokes on everyone. I went to brush my teeth last night and she had foiled every individual thing in our bathroom(soap, toothbrushes, toiletries, etc..). It was pretty funny.

Girls Weekend!

We had our annual Okinawa girls weekend in Williamsburg, Va this year. Three nights plus tons of shopping and good food made the perfect getaway!

Claire is writing letters

Claire loves to draw the letters of the alphabet, pretty good for a 3 year old I think!

Another Thanksgiving in Kentucky

A little drama and a broken leg made Thanksgiving one to remember this year! Here we are attempting a family pic for Joy's Christmas card..
Another attempt in Aunt Glenda's carriage house


The kids hanging out


Barrell family with their new perfect baby girl, Bradley Joy.



The girls goofing off at the Grand Ole Opry where we saw the Rockettes perform, had dinner and saw the lights at the Opryland Hotel. Great night with the girls..


Tiffany and Kevin + 7

The whole Sandlin family minus the Thompsons...and Bob who was taking the pic


Having fun on the golf cart with Matthew. This is one of the kids favorite things to do in KY.


Claire's new look, we have been experimenting with many different headbands since
the fiasco



The girls on Aunt Glenda's farm



Making Jack pose for a pic


It snowed the Friday after Thanksgiving!





Grandmom with her latest grandchild making her number 14 I think!





Claire on Thanksgiving day, weather was a little dreary but it did not stop the kids from playing outside



Sweet picture of great grandmother Sandlin with baby Bradley
