I think a lot of people are going to get a boxer puppy for Christmas this year. Since the beginning of December, this photo has been getting a lot of traffic from yahoo image searches.

Lots of picture taking happened over the weekend. But who has time to process them?

My baby had her birthday party on Saturday. I can't believe she'll be six on Wednesday. Where has the time gone?

I'm in the mood for decorating! I've been pulling everything out and hope to start putting things up tonight. I was hoping to have friends over for dinner but that fell through and now I'm left with a bunch of free time. I'm going to put it to good use.

After being completely charmed by this little golden goat, everyone at the party talked about getting one. Sure he's cute and sweet now. But he's going to get big and ugly. Maybe we should just hire the traveling petting zoo more often instead.

Birthdays and Christmas seem to fill up December. I took many pictures at this little girl's birthday party but haven't had much time to process them. This one stood out to me, though, and I managed to find some time to get it ready.
