Merry Christmas

Thanks to all our friends who sent Christmas cards to us. It is so much fun to get each one and with each one my guilt grows about not sending out one from the Miller 5. Maybe next year, or maybe not. I figure with this blog how many pictures of us do you really need to see. ;)

Anyway, trust everyone has a lovely holiday. We can certainly praise God for all that is past and always trust him for all that is to come. If He doesn't come in the next week I think 2010 would be the perfect year to go home. But what do I know.

Love, The Miller 5

Jill's "New" Bike

Over the Thanksgiving weekend in T-hatch, Nathan painted Lucas' (or is it Lucas's or is it Luca's or.... Honestly ever time I write it, I wonder) old bike, which in now Jill's bike, pink and also the surrounding grass but that is really beside the point now since his Mother graciously forgave him and is now just very thankful every time it snows.

To complete the transformation I ran to Maisonnette, which is a wise first step in any decoration transformation one may undertake. Turns out they had the PERFECT oilcloth fabric to tie in the pink and the remaining bits of red. A little bit of paint, a little bit of sewing and a little bit of decoupage glue and TA DAAA....a new PINK bike for a very PINK girl.

Since I had the camera out we had fun trying to make "fast" pictures. I told Jill to ride by me really fast, look at me and smile. She did a great job looking at me with a huge cheese-ball smile.

But occasionally you also have to keep an eye on where you are going...

Lucas pulled out his standard freestyle tricks...

This one "got my heart going. I wasn't sure what was going to happen."And on a completely unrelated note...all fall I've been loving these trees at end of our street.

Boy humor

Here is what I found taped to the toilet seat a couple of days ago...

It reads..."tlit and pee and pup"

Now, ain't that nice! The boy's putting his recently acquired writing skills to good use.
