A Soldier's Christmas

Christmas Pictures

Okay, here are the pictures I promised!! I know there aren't a whole lot, but oh well.

These are Dakota's new shoes, all the boys got new tennis shoes, they are very excited!!!

These are Hunter's new one, and Luke's new ones are yellow and gray colored, I don't have a picture of it.

This is our dog, Thunder, opening his presents =D!!




Here are some of my presents!!!! The one on the side is a new light cover, and then a camera case, and $20, I also got some stuff from my grandparents, which included $60, for rx sunglasses, and I can also get a new pair of glasses w/ it!!


These are probably our most used presents, at least for me- Monopoly Deal, an awsome game!! And Taboo, a fun word game!!
Hope y'all had Happy Holidays, and enjoy the new year!!!

Some song lyrics!!

Haha, here I am, still thinking Christmas thoughts!! Us kids, got my mom a Christmas CD for her present, and there are two songs on there that I've never heard before but I really like, so I decided to post the lyrics!! Anyways, the first one is more of just a winter one.

"It's A Marshmallow World"

It's a marshmallow world in the winter

When the snow comes to cover the ground

It's the time for play, it's a whipped cream day

I wait for it the whole year long.

Those are marshmallow clouds being friendly

In the arms of the evergreen tree

And the sun is read like a pumpkin head

It's shining so your nose won't freeze.

The world is your snowball, see how it grows

That's how it goes whenever it snows

The world is your snowball just for a song

Get out a roll it along.

It's a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts

Take a walk with your favorite girl (guy)

It's a sugar date, what if spring is late

In winter it's a marshmallow world.

"Tender Tennessee Christmas"

Come on weatherman,

Give us a forecast snowy white.

Can't you hear the prayers

Of every childlike heart tonight?

Rockles are calling,

Denver snow is falling,

Somebody said its four feet deep.

But it doesn't matter,

Give me the laughter;

I'm gonna choose to keep

(Chorus)

Another tender Tennessee Christmas,

The only Christmas for me.

Where the love circles around us,

Like the gift around our tree.

Well I know there's more snow,

Up in Colorado,

Then my roof will ever see,

But tender Tennessee Christmas

Is the only Christmas for me.

Every now and then,

I get a wanderin' urge to to see

Maybe California,

Maybe Tinsel Town's for me.

There's a parade there;

We'd have it made there;

Bring home a tan for New Year's Eve.

Sure sounds exciting,

Awfully inviting,

Still I think I'm gonna keep

(Chorus)

Another Tender Tennessee Christmas,

Is the only Christmas for me.

Where the love circles around us,

like the gifts around our tree.

Well they say in L.A.,

It's a warm holiday;

It's the only place to be.

But a tender Tennessee Christmas,

Is the only Christmas for me.

Merry Christmas!!!!!!

Merry Christmas from us to you:) This is a picture of us kids with my Grandma.


This is the snow in Michigan, doesn't it look wonderful :~/

And... Our Christmas tree!!

Merry Christmas!!

Christmas Decorating

Tomorrow we're going to start decorating for Christmas!!! My brothers are so excited, they've been bugging my mom for like a couple of weeks, so they're really excited.
I'm trying this signature thing for the first time, so hopefully it works out. I've been trying to figure it out, but I had no clue what I was doing, so thank you Sharon for your help!
We went up to my Grandparents for Thanksgiving and well we were there we had a sort of informal photo shoot, so as soon as I get the pictures I'll post them.
