Dad and Sophia at Church during the candle lighting service.

This was a beautiful moment. All the church was lit up with candles and the room was filled with voices singing Silent Night!

Here are a few photos from Christmas Eve. Sophia is playing with a sheet of stickers in most of these photos. She LOVES stickers! Mom came down with the stomache flu after Dad and Sophia had it earlier in the week. Needless to say, Mom was too sick to spend Christmas day with anyone and sat in bed all day watching Gray's Anatomy on the lap top (PATHETIC!).

Sophia playing with Fat Sal. Late December 2008.

Sophia out in the snow....lost a mitten and she began to cry. December 23, 2008.

The writing in the frost of our living room window reads..."Can you say cold? -20 degrees.

Daddy and Sophia at the Christmas stroll. Sadly, most of the childrens' activities were jam-packed by the time we got there.

A visit to Uncle Randy's to play with little Tyco.

Brother, Eliott comes for a visit in early December. The troops go out on a sled ride. Sophia had a ball, and is a little flirtatious with Eliott.

Here is a series of photos of the family decorating the tree. Sophia insited on wearing the tree skirt as a cape and would not take it off.

Sophia in her dress from Aunt Valerie.

Grandma Bugsy's vintage Christmas tree was the hit of the party with the kids.

Sophia and daddy...

Avery and Sophia spent a great deal of time running around chasing each other with ballons up at the T-Day party.
