Oh how the Roebuck's...

...love the holidays! In UN-Roebuck fashion, we were quite on top of things this year. The Christmas tree and decorations were up by December 1st AND Kris actually decided to put lights on the house! To no avail, I have asked him to put them up the last two years. He would claim that I was trying to collect on his life insurance and that there was no way he would get up on that ladder! I guess the holiday spirit rubbed off on him. He made his way up to the hardware store and loaded up on all the goods (I had to put my foot down when it came to the blow up Santa). I must say, it is quite impressive! He was even semi-ok with our annual trip to Garden Ridge to pick out our 2009 ornaments. With all the holiday spirit flowing through our house, I tried to snap some pictures of Elly in front of the tree. Now that she has discovered her new freedom from crawling, it is even more difficult to get a good shot!

"Hey Dad! I know you keep telling me to look at the camera, but I can't take my eyes off YOU!"

Thinking about it...

Yep...I'm outta here!
