Christmas and the New Year

Well now that that Holidays are over and things have settled down a bit, it's back to blog posting. Of course Clara and I took so many good pictures since our last chat, it may take a few posts to catch back up. So let's just assume this is January's post and we'll start the new year off on the right foot :-)

We'll start with a beautiful picture of the Hodge Girls! Don't we all look fantastic in our Christmas Eve outfits?

Time to cook Christmas Dinner! Dad and I were in charge of dessert. Spreading the cream in the pumpkin rolls!

Clara's first Christmas where she wasn't just laying around all day. I still have to show her a few thinks, like how to play with every toy for 20 minutes before we open up the next present.

Here I am modeling the latest in outdoor headgear. It works great as a night light too.

Clara has been introduced to Mema's Fort Knox wrapping style. I busted out the jack hammer and we were able to get in.

Santa brought me exactly what I asked for. A Cow and a Donkey! The Cow's name is Coby and the Donkey's name is Donkey!

 I've also made my decision on what I want to be when I grow up. Mommy and Daddy told me to start saving my money. It's a good thing Dad and I made a piggy bank. I'm pretty sure I have at least 28 coins in there.

Clara would like to welcome everyone to 2013!!!
