Life isn't always kind, but at least Santa is...

My title is a perfect fit for this blog, because even though Santa has always been generous, he has yet to give me a photogenic Christmas morning picture!

This is daddy helping Deacon unwrap a very cool snail.

Here is my Delaney, trying on a shirt that she insists is a dress.

For Caleb, the gift opening isn't over until the stocking has been raided. I think he gets that from me. (Haha)


An overjoyed Christopher.


Deacon loves his new shape sorter!



What a pretty girl!

Cool duds, my man!

My soon-to-be little reader.

Mommy and her baby boy.

We were really lucky to have been able to go out to Hanford to be with my guys, the Barths, for Christmas. We sure miss you guys!

Things that I miss...

This is a picture log of a few of the things that I miss.

This is me and Lannah, my very first niece.

And this is my girl, Delaney, with her guy, Mae!

This is a sweet baby Nixon that I don't get to watch get bigger. :(

Logan, Utah misses the Barth family!

Sweet Ballerina Boy

So, I guess it is time I update. This is the cutest baby boy on Earth. Caleb decided to dress Deacon in Delaneys ballerina tutu. But he is so handsome in his red shirt that I think he looks perfect!!

I am officially common.

Funny Faces in the Bath

Delaney is my little bath fish. She loves to take a bath almost everyday, but then fakes me out by saying she has to go potty, thus getting out of the bath without getting washed, and then telling me she doesn't have to go potty anymore. She's sneaky!

Anyhow, here are a few of her bath faces.

This one is my favorite.

The Ball Brothers Two

So, here are the boys just having fun together, and sharing hats. So cute!

One Seriously Beautiful Girl

This is my little lady. I think she just looks exceptionally beautiful and sweet in this picture, and I just had to brag!

Sweeter than Sweet

Scrub a dub dub.

This is my sweet child all wrapped up like a little candy. He is the easiest baby in the world and I am so grateful for him.

Caleb's Symhony Night

Caleb had his first real symphony at Logan High School. For those who do not know or remember, he plays the full size bass. He is pretty good too. This is his first year playing and already plays the 2nd year stuff.

You can download a video of his Pirates of the Caribbean orchestra piece all of the students played together here: http://www.balltelecom.com/Caleb.htm

The file is very large (100MB) but we are having it reduced soon.

One Last Birthday Post

I had to do this last post to show what an amazing friend we have. Shelly put this cake together at the last minute for Delaneys birthday party and it is absolutely amazing. Thank you so much Shelly!!

Awesome, huh?!!
