Cousins










Decorating the Christmas Tree

SAVE A FOREST, BUY PLASTIC
This year Rick decided not to fuss with a real tree and we joyfully purchased our first "fake" tree. It is so awesome...we have no idea why we didn't do this sooner. You simply pop it out of the box and poof... a prelit christmas beauty :)!

We are a camera shy family...

Mommy's Favorite part of seeing the tree decorated is having the angel placed on top. This year Jane really wanted to be the one to put on the angel.


Thanksgiving 2008










A typical day with the Carrs...

Lights, Camera, Action!

Storytime is a special part of our day. Alex loves to read books about "bob" (veggietales), little blessings, anything Thomas, the bible, and more. Jane enjoys princess stories, her bible, five speckled frogs and more. We are enjoying sharing devotions daily as a family.


Jane sporting her new top from the Pfaff's in Guatemala!! Thank you Karis!! Jane loved receiving her package from you. Cousins are special.



Living in where we do, we are so spoiled with such beauty and numerous routes for walking. Often we enjoy walking during naptime and our kiddos usually fall asleep.











A Princess Tea Party

Here are our princesses!! We just love parenthood...such a blessing. Rick prayed over lunch where the prince and princesses enjoyed princess punch, heart shaped sandwiches and apple slices (all picked out and requested by the birthday girl). Everyone had a really good time.


16 hours later...Our masterpeice was complete. Look out Martha Stewart :)! Jane had her heart set on a "pink princess castle" cake for weeks. It was a very fun project...Rick and I shared many laughs while creating her cake.
