Wow! What a great Christmas
And thank goodness Santa got on the ball this year… those are some happy little pricesses.
Wonderful! Just like Christmas is supposed to be! All those lovely happy faces…. what a joy, Mary!
So what was the big gift? Sometimes the biggest isn’t always the best! I can see the princess tent will be much loved!
Have you seen our new Christmas treasures? We had court on December 26th in Ukraine and became the proud Mommy and Daddy to three boys!
We got a princess tent, too! Pink Paradise!
Wow! Look at all those presents! My boys got a “Cars” tent just like the Princess one. Unfortunately, instead of sitting in it and having tent and fort adventures, they insist on standing under it and running around the house like some kind of Chinese dragon in a parade.
Wonderful!!
Your children are absolutely beautiful! And our Christmas gift-giving looked like that too — also with ten kids plus one in-law. So much fun!
FWIW, I vote for the terra-cotta scarf with the black dress. When do we get to know what it’s for?

Looks fabulous!
So fun! Tents are always such a hit!
You’re an incredible woman. May God bless you, and thank you.
..oh, and happy New Year!
And I thought we had a house full-we had 10-but that was 3 families.
Merry Christmas to all of you, and the most blessed of New Years. I’m glad that I found you this year!
Your children are beautiful!! You are blessed!
I’m happy to see Santa finally remembered that Princess tent! Evert little girl just needs all the pink she can get! Happy New Year!
