Christmas Day gifts

Manna came over and gave Sarah the cutest jeans and a CD-Karaoke machine and Russ and Sarah had fun singing.

Christmas Day

When dinner was over, Sarah, Russ and I made our first gingerbread house that wasn't from scratch. Sarah had so much fun pouring the icing on the roof that when we were done, it looked like a snow storm had come through.

Christmas at the Zoo 2008

I didn't get to go with Sarah and Russ this year but Monna and Allison went in my place. Here are some pictures of their fun.

Halloween 2008

Sarah was a pirate as she wanted to carry a hook and sword. She loved walking around thehouse with her hook and sword and would say "aaarrhhh" just like a pirate. At Bendwood, there was a carnival and she got cotton candy. In the evening, we went to Monna's Trunk or Treat at her chruch. People came and opened their trunks and gave out candy to the kids. I think some fo the adults liked decorating thier trunks more than actually giving out the candy. Sarah had a lot of fun not only going and getting candy but also giving it out.

Monna's chruch was having a 50's celebration, to celebrate their 50th year. with a sock hop. Sarah loved all the dancing and expecially meeting Elvis. She even helped him sing one of his songs.
