Easter 2009

Easter sure is fun for James when he gets his Easter basket he’s about as happy as can be. This Easter we spent most of the time outdoors. James is learning the value of money and got a basketball piggy bank which works right into that theme. His main concern is quarters for the gumball and tattoo machines that we see when leaving restaurants and stores.

Easter 2008

We welcomed back a couple “pretty birds” since the first pretty bird died this year, a new pet is always a fun item to add to our Easter day. And yes, that is a guillotine in the picture, doesn’t everyone have one of these? We brought out the Huggum dolls for the event as well, they always add a little flavor to the atmosphere.

Christmas 2006 Huggums Dolls

Right before Christmas the family received a surprise from Mary’s mom, Huggum dolls that she played with as a child were sent to us so naturally we had fun taking pics of the dolls with the rest of the family. They were sent to us Fed Ex and arrived safe and sound. This has been a tradition in Mary’s house for many years and the dolls do class up the place if I must say so myself. James was curious about them, wondering if they were playtoys or not, but Mom assured him they were not his to play with but rather family heirlooms to be passed on from generation to generation.
