dressed up for christmas

i snapped these pictures after church last sunday... caroline looked so sweet in this red christmas dress that natalie wore a few years ago. and when we got to church, we realized that natalie's baby sister claire wore caroline's dress from last christmas! awww! so tammy and i enjoyed gushing over our babies in their traded dresses (claire will probably wear this red dress next christmas!). :) i was so happy that caroline cooperated for these pictures because my heart was melting to see my baby girl in this precious corduroy dress... my heart is melting looking at them again. thank you, tammy, for thinking of her and loaning us this dress!


here are both of the kids looking at their 2007 ornaments. caroline's musical ornament was quite the favorite at our house this year, and the little girl that was dancing around the tree seems to have been our first christmas casuality! i'm actually surprised that ethan's "happy bday Jesus" cake survived the whole "chmismas" season, as ethan says.




we pray that your family enjoyed a wonderful Christmas celebration.  we surely did... those pictures are next!
