Christmas 2004
This was an exciting Christmas for our family.  Kara enjoyed receiving more "grown up" presents this year as she is learning how to read, and is interested in a vast variety of subjects, including science, weather, and the human body (all books bought for her by "Dad", since "Daddy" is banished from our current vocabulary.)

Kailey had a wonderful time Christmas morning; she didn't know what to think when she saw all the presents Santa brought.

As you can see the girls had a prosperous Christmas:  Cabbage Patch dolls, little ponies, games, kitchens, microscopes, and candy, just to name a few presents.
