christmas eve play at church, E and I were both angels 🙂 
i need to get more pics from my SIL, as this was such a special play for us… our whole family participated. kira was mary and chris was one of the wise men and the boys were shepards.
christmas morning:

my handmade gift from my husband- so sweet 🙂

he and cam went all around town taking polaroid pics of trees. one of my favorite things.

then it was off to grammies and grampies across the street for christmas morning with them
kira and her cousin. my SIL and her family were here for the week. such a special time with them!

cam had such a cute little quirk this year while opening presents. he’d open then cover them up right away.



then back home for a little rest,then back to grammies for the whole family christmas together.
claiming to be camera shy:

but proving otherwise a bit later:

she got use to the present thing very quickly 🙂

then it was time for family entertainment 🙂

(k17 flashback auts and amihan!)


kk stoked to have the 5 golden rings part 🙂

next morning, the girls went out to see benjamin button and chris set up some pics. looooove these of these 2! they are 3 years apart but were total buds the whole trip.


and a few of my favorite things- my husband and ginko leaves 🙂

happy new year blog land! i cannot believe it will be 2009 tomorrow.

Such cool photos – I love them! Can I ask what lens you use for the wide angle shots – I am in desperation of a good one for everyday use and shoots, and your shots always look so great:)
