Christmas 2008

















The Reason for the Season!








Kaid at the Steelers game in Nashville.











A view from the upstairs hallway. You can see Baleigh's reflection in the mirror above the fireplace ;)










I can't move my pictures again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!









Look at that "Roll Mountain"!

















We are practicing defensive schemes. Bay has her new softball helmet on. She was very disapointed that it wasn't a football helmet. She wants to play in the junior football league next year.




Kaid and Bay are rockin' out with the Wii Guitar Hero World Tour. It is sooo much fun!


This text was SUPPOSED to be at the top. I know I sound like a techno-idiot, but seriously, I am not! I told LouAnne I was going to stop blogging on Sundays because of all the crazy techno mayhem that I have experienced! And now, I have just hung up with Lindsey after venting my blogging frustrations! Thanks for listening Lindsey!


Most of this post is about fun, silliness and gifts - but we did pause to appreciate the reason for the season. Baleigh really impressed us with a very nice prayer at dinner time and she also took a picture of part of our nativity scene just for the blog.

Last weekend, Dan and Kaid scored tickets to the Steelers/Titans game in Nashville. The game had home-field advantage in the playoffs on the line and the STEELERS LOST! Never-the-less, Dan is convinced that they will win the almighty Super Bowl - the hard way, on the road.


Today, I will be... working the concession stand at the Carbondale Holiday tournament, helping Krista move down here and become my first southern Illinois kinfolk, and trying to watch as as much football as possible. So, I am going to stop typing and get busy! I will just let the rest of the pictures and videos speak for themselves. Baleigh is ready for show business.




Christmas Eve at the Koesters - pretty funny stuff.


I don't know. I found this video on the camera and laughed so hard I cried. There is no doubt, Bay has quite a sense of humor for which I can take no credit for.
AND LASTLY, please take note of the new poll question! Not much participation in the last one - come on peeps! 2 of the votes came from MY house! :)

I voted on the last one!! I'm doin' my part! This one is a little harder, because I honestly don't think I'd choose any of those things. is there an "other" choice? :)

I hear ya on the blogger frustrations. I just spent the whole day and evening working on three separate blogs. Gotta give the people what they want!

Why is your daughter wearing a winter hat inside the house?
