sneak peek :: the boys :: 2010

the boys.
"her" boys...as katie refers to them.
our neighbors.
our friends.
here's a little sneak peeky for mama.

welcome back sylvester :: our elf on the shelf

silly sylvester arrived today...
we're not quite sure how -- perhaps on a sleigh?
we found him among the pumpkins we bought...
with that sly little smile -- a mischievous thought?
we missed his antics when he took his leave...
we wonder what NEW tricks he'll have up his sleeve?
oh, welcome sylvester, we're happy you're here...
you bring so much fun and christmas cheer!
