Thanks for an awesome Christmas! We had a great time, and were thankful to get some road underway during daylight! We got home safely, but it was quite a drive.
The Young name has found its' home, and we love it! Melodie even looks at it and smiles. I'll post pics of the cookie party, etc soon. Miss the fam already.

Christmas Celebrate Party... Video

Just thought I would throw this out here even though everyone saw it. The 2008 Christmas Celebrate Cookie Party. I'm looking forward to the 5th Annual one next year!!!

Cookie Party Pictures Part 1

I am hoping you all have some better pictures than I do - I'll post a few. I am glad we made it to the party! I did not get many pictures of the LB kids - I hope someone else did!

Sydney Says THANK YOU!!

Sydney wants to say thank you to everyone for her presents and for coming to her party! She loved EVERYTHING!! She even got a package in the mail from the Tennessee LaBarges that I let her open in the morning - the Fariy book is great. (Both girls love it!). The girls have been sledding on the new fast sled and once again, both girls have been playing with the new doggie and Sara the Tiger.

James got to go to school with Raleigh on Friday for the Kindergarten Gingerbread house making party. Raleigh loved having James there and the girls have been snitching ever since!

Happy Birthday Snowy!

Happy Birthday Snowella! I'm sorry that we weren't able to make the big party. We'll see you in a week!

Grandma J's 89th birthday at the cottage (Notice Mallory with her finger in the frosting). - Cousins chilling out on the couch. - Return of the Cabbage Patch Kids (although I was going to label it "Don't ask, don't tell". - Finally, our own "Hand-crafted by Jackie Tree Top Angel!" - And finally . . . This year's winner of the LaBarge Family Blog "Best Looking Christmas Tree" contest. Sorry family, but ours is just about perfect.

My View

Here was the sunrise as I drove in to work on Wednesday- one of the benefits of driving through rural areas!!

Here are my small, but cute, Christmas decorations- I should have taken the picture at night- oh well :)

Sydney's 3rd Birthday Party

You are all invited to Sydney's 3rd Birthday Party next Thursday, December 11th at our house. We are having a soup and bread bar and cake and icecream. We'll eat around 6 pm. Come early if you want and bring snow clothes for the kids if they want to sled on our ginormous sledding hill. Dad - you can bring your snowsuit too if you want to go sledding... I realize it is on a weekday and you might not be able to make it but we'll take whoever we can!

Blog Hog

We put up our tree and stockings, and are now in full swing Christmas spirit! Sorry I've been a blog hog lately! :)

Merry Christmas and songs from Melodie

Merry Christmas everyone! Melodie tried her hand at carolling this morning and wanted me to share her Christmas cheer with everyone.
