"Nature looks dead in winter because her life is gathered into her heart. She withers the plant down to the root that she may grow it up again fairer and stronger. She calls her family together within her inmost home to prepare them for being scattered abroad upon the face of the earth." Hugh Macmillan

all I want for Christmas
Every year I like to get the boys (and me and Brandon!) an ornament that represents that year for us! Sometimes the ornaments I find better represent the year for us then others but this year I think I've found the perfect ornament for every member of our family!! For this year, I bought Ashtyn and ornament with two beavers on it. The child beaver is missing his two front teeth and the Santa beaver is bringing him two front teeth wrapped in a Christmas bow! Ashtyn is ACTUALLY missing both his two front teeth this Christmas!! It was perfect timing!! Ashtyn's ornament even plays the classic tune "All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth"!! For Maddox, I bought a Lego ornament. It's a snowman. This year, Maddox has become obsessed with all things Lego. Of course, his favorite is Lego Star Wars but I figured the Lego snowman was a good representation of Maddox's most favorite thing of 2011. Mine and Brandon's ornaments haven't come in yet but for Brandon I got an ornament shaped like the moose-head-mug from the movie "National Lampoons Christmas Vacation". We LOVE that movie!! And for myself I ordered an OSU ornament. I couldn't resist, considering we won the Big 12 Champion Title this year for the very first time!! Woohoo!! Go Pokes!! I love Christmas and I love hunting for the perfect ornament every year for each member of my family!! So fun!!
