Kaylee's New Bed

Thanks to my friend, Amanda, Kaylee got a full-size bed now!  She got a new comforter set from Grandpa & Nana Jo and a heated mattress pad from Grandma & Grandpa Kuecker, and new sheets from Santa.  We spent our day today cleaning out her room and getting ready for the new bed. Justin and Uncle Tavis went to pick up the bed and we got it all set up. I hope she is comfy and really warm tonight!

This was during the "cleaning" process...

And after the new bed was set up.

Werner Family Christmas

We found a great big room where we could hold our Werner Family Christmas. We had plenty of room and the room was beautiful. Grandma was able to put ornaments on the tree for everyone, like she always has. We opened gifts, had dinner, and did our annual candle ceremony to remember those that are no longer with us.

Opening gifts from Great-Grandma

The whole group - well, we were missing about 25 people this year.

Christmas with Mom

We got together today to celebrate Christmas with my Mom. We hung out at Christy & Tavis' house, had brunch and opened gifts. It was a great day!

This is a wrought iron volleyball player for Kaylee

to hang on the wall in her bedroom.

Simon picked out a matchbox car for Natalie - she loved it!

Eli liked his toy from Uncle Justin.

I got Simon his Flipeez hat, I think he liked it!

Mariah got this picture of Clay Matthews from Grandma, 

she couldn't stop smiling!

More Family Photos

We decided to try to do some more pictures, Tracy wanted a family picture and we wanted one of all the kids together. It was tough to get them all to look at the camera at the same time, but we did pretty good!

Christy and I decided to create our own "studio" space for holiday pictures. We think they turned out great! We even got Simon and Eli to look in the right direction...at the same time!
