Bauer Family Christmas

Allie giving Aubrey a good old fashioned bear hug
Daddy's taking all three down the hill...yes, Lexie is in the backpack!
Off they go...into the fog and rain!
Aren't we cute?
Always fun trying to get the cousins in one shot with Grandpa and Grandpa
Waiting patiently for Aaron to join the guys for a picture
What a handsome group of fellas!

Love it!
This thing is a blast!!
We enjoyed an awesome day with our Bauer family today! It started with sledding...which was ended up getting rained out (yes, rain in December...go figure!). We joined for lunch at our house then broke off for naps. We gathered together in the evening for cousin playtime and a fantastic family dinner. This was followed by opening Christmas presents and enjoying birthday cake for Mom Bauer and our nephew Bradley's recent birthdays. It's always a blessing when we're able to get together with family, however we missed our Texas family--the Pearsons! Love you guys! As this will most likely be the final post of 2008, we wish you God's blessings in the New Year!

Silly Lexie!


I got my stinky feet!!
I'm naked and I've got two nookers!! Life is good!!
I'm just so happy I can't hardly stand it!!!

You know there too much snow when it's over the seats on our swings!

All I wanted for Christmas was my Mickey Mouse!
