Christmas 2009






This is Stratton Horace, my brother's new baby. Moriella got to feed him his bottle with my help while we were there. She was so happy. I think it made her happier than Christmas morning did. Isn't he cute. They think he looks like an old man but apparently old man looks good on him.

This is why we do it all. All the crazy shopping, all the late night wrappings, the money spent etc. all for this moment of awe.



Of course the nativity picture. Moriella didn't get to be Mary for the Reids so she was so excited to be Mary for the Fershtuts.


Most mornings in the quiet of the day you could find my Moriella in this chair playing with the baby Jesus and Mother Mary. One of my favorite quiet moments of the season, simply beautiful.


And of course the Charly Brown Tree we cut down every year. This one was nice and full but quite lop sided, but the pickings were slim this year.




Here is the Christmas Train at the live Nativity at Tuachan. If you ever get the chance to go it is amazing with live animals and an outdoor amphitheater.

So cute. I love all your pictures. The picture of Moriella playing with the nativity is really sweet.
