Christmas Celebrations

 Santa came to the local Kings store this year.  Here's Rylan sitting on his lap.

 Andrea with her candy cane from Santa.

 Landon sure is growing up but still likes to sit on Santa's lap.

 Even Alexa was willing to sit on his lap for a picture.

 Little Lyndie's first Christmas.  She didn't even cry when Santa took her!

 Happy holidays from the Browning family.  We sure are getting to be quite a crew.

 Christmas morning.  Here's Landon with his new robe and Real Steel Robots.

 Baby's first Christmas.  She loved all the bows and wrapping paper!

 Andrea was sure excited about her new dream-lite.  She also got that robe she is wearing.

 Alexa with her new calendar.

 Santa brought Rylan a toy tool set.  Here he is ready to do some serious construction work.

 Landon made Joe this apron at scouts.  He loved it!

 

I had to get a picture of Lyndie in her "Baby's first Christmas shirt."

Piano Recital

 Here's Landon and Alexa at their Christmas Piano Recital.  Landon played Jolly Old St. Nicholas and Deck the Halls.  Alexa played Carol of the Bells.  They both did an outstanding job!  I was very proud of them.  Alexa did so well that she was asked to play at the Christmas Relief Society meeting later that month.

Halloween Festivities

 I'm really behind on my posts so bear with me as I post things from months ago.  Here we are carving pumpkins.

 Alexa and Rylan carved this one together.  (It was actually mostly Alexa because Rylan didn't want to touch the slimy inside goup.)

 Here's Landon and Andrea with their pumpkins that they designed themselves.

 Here's Lyndie in her special Halloween pajamas.

Rylan was a dinosaur this year to go trick-or-treating.

 

 Andrea was Tigger.

 Landon was a Clone Trooper.

 Alexa was Cleopatra.

 And Lyndie was a little lamb.

 Ready to go trick-or-treating.

Enjoying our traditional Halloween dinner of mummy dogs, slugs (peaches), witches fingers (cheetos), and bubbling blood (red kool-aid with dry ice in it.)  We had a happy halloween!
