Sikorski Saga

Dorothy, ahem, Katja wearing reindeer antlers. Luella looking more Easter- ish with her bunny ears.

Soren sporting the outfit we gave him for a birth day present! So handsome! Katja giving Soren a kiss! Kyla holding the littlest ones. Katja was concerned and crying every time Kyla held Soren without holding her. Paige with the oldest ones. Silly giggly girls! Tim, Kyla, Sigrid, Luella, Katja and Soren before the Evers had to drive back to Maryland. Thanks for a great day of playing and catching up!

We decorated the house for Christmas in an attempt to find the advent candle holder. Jingle Bear got lots of snuggles! Katja with her cute smile. Luella with her cute smile. Big hugs for Jingle Bear! Just realized we didn't take any pictures of the decorated house. Look for them later in December.

Kyla and Ginger went Christmas shopping. Tim and the girls stayed home and had a pajama day.

If you normally get big pictures of us at Christmas, this is the one you're getting! Aren't we cute? Yep, Kyla and Tim kissing again. Kyla and the girls. This was near the end of the photo shoot and Katja wanted her nap. Tim and the girls. Adorable picture of Tim and the girls. The girls by themselves. A nice compilation of our black background photos. The girls wish you peace, love and joy! Bacon can't give you raspberries Katja !

Kyla cooked and friends and family came over! Uncle Phil, Ginger Hammerquist and Katja . Tim, Mark Yeary (recently home from Iraq) and Luella. Kyla had to get in a picture, along with the long view of the food! Tim and Mark doing dishes! While the guys did dishes, the girls played with sidewalk chalk on the porch. Katja can draw a great line! Luella can direct people to draw for her. Great pumpkins Ginger! Luella did help color in the pumpkins. Close up of Katja's coloring. Luella loves her chocolate pie! It doesn't matter how it's presented, it still tastes great! Katja gives the messy face approval!

Luella helping Kyla making pies for Thanksgiving as Quality Control. The chocolate pudding pie was scrumptious! Our early Christmas present delivered and installed- a flat HDTV with built-in surround sound and a sub woofer ! Beats having lines running through the top 1/3 of the screen like our old TV! It really does take watching TV to a whole new level. We watched "Deadliest Catch" on Discovery and we thought one of the boats got a new paint job, but it was just better quality viewing! We had pizza for dinner, like most of the nation, the day before Thanksgiving. Katja showing us that she's way too smart to eat the fire pickles.
