These pictures were taken when we first went into the Creation Museum.  When we left, they put the backgrounds in, and we chose which ones we wanted.  For the first pose, we were supposed to look up and to the right like we were scared.  As you will notice, Gregg waved to the dinosaur instead of acting afraid.  Aneira didn't quite understand the directions. We thought that the caption could say something like "Oh, goody, he's going to eat my family, HI!!!).  LOL!  Anyway, for your viewing pleasure, here are the two poses.

Thanks to all of you out there doing the snow dance, we now have snow!  At this point it is still snow, and it doesn't look like it's going to do anything else.  There was some chance of freezing rain, but hopefully it has bypassed us.  So, for all you southerners who didn't get any snow, here are some pretty pics.  The first few are rather dark because Arianna took them when she got up early this morning.  I didn't go outside.  Aric and Arianna took all the pictures.  They turned out pretty good, I think!  If you have trouble viewing the photoshow, view the page on it's own.

These are pictures of Aneira's 6th birthday.  For best results, let it load first, and then press play.  She had a great day, and really racked-up the presents.  It's so hard to believe that she is 6 now.  She was born just the other day . . . .

She received that dress for Christmas minutes earlier, and she immediately went to change into it.  The headband came with it.  We thought she looked cute the way she had put it on, so we didn't change it until the rest of the guests came.  All the pictures with her hair all skewed are actually her opening her Christmas presents from Grandma, who wasn't able to be with us on Christmas day.

My favorite picture is when she opened her Chronicles of Narnia Pop-Up Book.  I was actually able to click the camera at just the right time to get that marvelous look of joy.

 
Here are some of our Christmas Pictures ranging from Christmas Eve to Christmas Day.  You may ask why there seems to be so many more pictures of Aneira and Aric than there are of Arianna.  Well, it's because Arianna really doesn't  like having her picture taken, and there are far more of her turning her head away or putting pillows, or other items, in front of her face.  She probably got that from me.  I hate having my picture taken.

Enjoy!
