Welcome Home Jeff!

Uncle Jeff just returned home from serving a two year full time mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of latter Day Saints in the Washington DC area. Here in the Photo is Mom,me and Belle, Jeff my brother, Jared my older brother and Dad. Monica, Jared's wife was also there to welcome Jeff home, but she was taking the photo. Isabelle and Jeff are becoming fast friends, she just loves him! It's good to have him home again and look forward to having him go to school near us in Idaho!

Isabelle visited Santa for the 1st time!

Isabelle went to meet Santa for the first time with her cousin Corynne at the church Christmas party. Isabelle did not like when I put her on Santa's lap at all, and Corynne did just great, you never know with these girls. Eventually she warmed up enough to sit on Moms lap next to him for anther photo, she won't take her eyes off of him.

After a hard day of 'Christmas partying' and meeting Santa Isabelle and Grandpa took a nap in Santa's chair!

Christmas float

Grandpa Tom built a Disney float for the San Juan Christmas parade. It was too cold for her to ride in so she was just there to pose for a photo with her cousins Hayden and Brian.

Great Grandparents

Isabelle has had a lot of fun since we've been here in California visiting family. I think she is starting to recognize people now. Here she is snuggling up with her Great grandparents on her Daddy's side. Apu Ed and G.G. Karen and with her Great Grandma Mary.
