Winter

There is nothing more beautiful than the forest
clothed to its very hollows in snow.
It is still the ecstasy of nature, wherein every spray
every blade of grass, every spire of reed,
every intricacy of twig, is clad with radiance.

Happy 2011!

We had a great Holiday this year. We were able to spend great quality time with all of our families and some very much needed relaxing time at home together. We were so lucky to have our dear friends Kris and Jen down for
New Years again this year--9th year in a row!!
Here is a little glimpse into our Christmas and New Years weekend.

We had a White Christmas this year!!

Byrd Grandkids at the Byrd Christmas

Santa paid a visit to the Schneider Farm

Jaclyn wasn't so sure about Santa at first.

We did the "set up the tripod and smile at the flashing light" thing.
A gift for me. :o)


The kids had a great time playing in the snow at the park across the street from our house.



The kids made it to midnight this year!!

The kids know that when they are together, they are getting thier photos taken. This time we went to campus.
