Kenworthy Christmas

We had Kenworthy Christmas on New Year's Eve.... it was a rough afternoon for Luke... opening presents during what should have been nap time, so I don't have very many pictures of him. But here he is with one of the big hits of the day - his Colts helmet!




Marissa made out like a bandit - even got a piece of furniture for her room. Here's cousin Nicole helping her sit in it.

Three Month Pics - Luke & Marissa



(L) Marissa - 3 months (12/30/08)
(R) Luke - 3 months (01/09/07 )

Marissa - Three Months Old!



I have been thinking about the past three months alot today. I don't know what it is about this second baby that makes me stop and think about what Luke was doing when he was this age... It makes me realize how fast time with Marissa is going.... I'm more sentimental for some reason. (hard to believe, I know!)
Marissa has really developed a sweet little personality in three months. As you can see in the picture, she's laughing and smiling all the time - she just melts everyone instantly! I'm truly blessed to have two great kids! What a joy......

My family at Christmas

I think Luke has had this look on his face in every family picture we've had since Marissa has been here.... Cracks me up! It's the anti-Luke. Oh well, it's the best we could do.....





Christmas Dinner with Landsdowns

My mom's family came over for a big dinner.... her 3 siblings, their kids, their grandkids.... 30'ish people in all.


Here's all the great-grandkids... (And Annie making sure Cade didn't take a nosedive off the pool table! )


This is all the grandkids.... first time this picture was taken since Chad's wedding in Dec. 2004, I think.


Grandkids with spouses


And here's the Ellis chunk of that crew

Christmas

We were at my mom & dad's for Christmas this year...

Christmas Eve....


Lots of stockings, cookies, etc.... all the essentials.


Post-Santa


Luke's new "computer"


Luke doing the robot (?).... seriously, I don't know what was going on here. I didn't take as many pictures as I thought, so I'm posting what I have!

Christmas Picture Attempts

This is the first year I haven't had 10 good pictures to choose from.... trying to photograph 2 children is significantly more challenging than just 1 child... and this is the first Christmas where Luke's stubborn streak factors in.

Check out Marissa's mohawk.....


Marissa's Christmas Dress

I love buying dresses!! I would've never thought I'd enjoy the frilly, girly stuff so much!
