My little stowaway, ready to fly out to Grandma and Papa's! Dec. 6, 2006. 

Little Blue Eyes and Mr. Mischievous, trying to look innocent after helping to decorate the tree! Dec. 3, 2006. 

Merry Christmas from Josh and Emmy! Dec. 3, 2006. 

Here's Emmy helping out by taking things off the tree! I love this picture - it reminds me of the black and white pictures that are kind of blurry of my first birthday party at Grandma and Grandpa A's house. The same stool is in those pictures too. That old wooden stool has been in the family for several generations now! Dec. 3, 2006. 

Here is Josh putting more stuff on that one branch he likes! Dec. 3, 2006. 

We put up the Christmas tree on Sunday, and the kids, um, *helped*. LOL! Josh was busy hanging everything on the two branches closest to eye level directly in front of him, and Emmy was busy removing everything in her reach! Since then Josh has rearranged everything he can reach over and over again, and Emmy looks for candy canes, which I've discovered she LOVES! There wouldn't be any in her reach except Josh keeps rearranging them, needing there to be a good balance or something, and next thing I know she's got one again! Gotta watch that girl! Dec. 3, 2006.
