So many things to do...so little time........

The hole gang (and a Burger King's hat) at Patriots Point in Charleston. There you get to walk around a Aircraft Carrier and a Coast Guard ship and also a Submarine. While there it makes you think about all those many people who have served this country. I am truly grateful to all those who have made that sacrifice. U R WONDERFUL!!!

I found the girls sitting together on a chair watching cartoons while we were tiring to get ready to go to the Airport. Kids sure do the sweetest things. Too CuTe!!!!

Our count down finally had ended for Gpa and Gma's visit. We went and picked them up at the airport and Karlee couldn't stop smiling she was so excited to see them.

Macy and Grandpa became buddies while they were here. (I didn't get any pic.'s of them together) I think Macy just new that Gpa was the one with all the good treats. She was always shouting out "PA-PA" wanting to know where he was.

Karlee really missed her Grandma she held her hand all the way to the car and couldn't stop saying Grandma....Grandma......Grandma. She was always sitting with Gma or by her in some way. She just LOVES you Mom!!!!

This was too sweet...While at Patriots Point Macy got to ride on Daddy's shoulders. She enjoyed very min. of it.

Karlee enjoyed her new camera she got from Santa. She had to show Grandma all the pictures she has taken. Most of the pictures are of the floor, table cloth and stairs. But she is learning.

The girls and I took Gma to Ed Venture ( kids museum) to show her around. I think she had a blast on the motorcycle what do u think.....?

Karlee's Xmas Program

Karlee has been talking all week about her program and how hard they have worked on it. It turned out wonderful, her music teacher even taught them special little hand movements too. It was so cute they looked like little Jesus praiser's with there hands in the air saying "hallelujah"!!!!

Her pre-school class sang there Christmas songs so well. They even had bells to shake. I wasn't even thinking when I helped her get dressed that morning, all the little girls there had there Christmas dresses on and Karlee said mom how come I don't have my Christmas dress on?( Well at least you could find her easily in the crowd) Needless to say I sure messed up on that one. Sorry, Sissy.

Blake is an awesome camera man!!! Lookin Good HoNeY BuNs!!

Macy's Birthday!!

Macy loves cupcakes...wait let me re-fraze that...Macy loves the frosting on cupcakes. Every Birthday I think to myself that I should just give them a bowl of frosting and a spoon. Anyways she was so happy with every gift and her little expressions were priceless. Oh my baby is already 2!!

It took her a few tries to get those candles blown out, I think she spit a little to get that last one out. Yummy :)!

Family and Friends,

This year our family has been through exciting times and hard times. But with every tear and smile we are still a Eternal Family and we can get through anything.

Blake is still as busy as ever building houses with his brother. He had ruff birthday this year due to the falling economy. He was laid off on his birthday from America's Home Place. Which was a very big surprise to all of us. But with that it has brought many other blessing to our family. He built us a beautiful home this year with his own hands. He did such a wonderful job on every detail. He is also busy with his YM and camp outs with his Scouts.

I am staying just as busy being a mom and making people feel more irresistible with new haircuts. I am just starting to working part time at OLD NAVY and I hope I bring home a paycheck and don't spend it all at the store. I am still in the Primary as the Secretary and I just love the wonderful women I get to work with. (luv u guys!) The girls and I got to make a trip Idaho this summer to see family, we had a blast seeing everyone but we know that our home now is in South Carolina. We are still adjusting to the warm winter's I still find myself putting sweater's on the girls in Dec. and it's 70 outside. I will get better at it sooner or later.

Karlee is my Fabulous Four year old. She is now in a church pre-school that she attends 5 days a week for a few hours a day. She just loves arts and crafts, everyday she comes home and asks if we can do a craft. She also likes to add her artistic mark to the walls of the house. Her 2 teachers are amazing they truly are teaching a sponge that soaks everything in. Karlee is very excited for Christmas this year she knows that Gpa and Gma are coming soon after.

Macy is my Terrific Two year old (almost). She will be 2 on Dec. 18th. She is my helper all day from washing clothes to washing dishes. Macy is such a snuggler and daddy and I just love it! She is starting to get her own little personality and she lets us know when we are doing things wrong. She is a big fan of her babies, she is such a good mama to all 5 of them. She has one little buddy at nursery that she plays with and explores with.

Our family hope's this letter finds all of you well and happy this Holiday Season and we Love and Miss Ya'll ( south talk for ya!).

The Mousers,

Blake, Erica, Karlee & Macy

Cinnamon Ornaments

These where the end result, Karlee had alittle to much fun with the glitter.

Crafty Karlee was so happy to have her friends over to make the special ornaments. As you can see Macy was tiring to help her big sis paint hers.

The hole gang finishing up there creations. They all did a awesome job and I hope they all had fun, I know my girls did. The BEST part about making these is it makes you house smell so good for the holiday's.

Poor Santa...

I don't even know what to say...poor Santa he has a ruff job.

Macy was so excited at first but then when it came time to sit on his lap she was not interested.

Here's my sweet big girl, she knows that if she doesn't sit on Santa's lap and tell him what she wants for Christmas she wont be getting anything from him.

The girls had a great time at the party. They had a pinata and the kids got to frost cookies. Thanks Again Michelle it turned out AwEsOmE!!
