Playin with the "Goods"

Harper is very protective of her new baby doll.

This is what Harper does when she is trying to wink at you.

Max told Santa he wanted a green space helmet and a dinosaur--this is the best we came up with!

Cookies for Santa!

My dad and I took Max fishing on Christmas Eve down at the river. It was our first time fishing here in Raleigh and we found a nice little spot. Max caught a fish by all by himself for the first time. He was really excited. Here are some pics from the day.

Christmas was coming.....

Hello everybody! We hope everyone had a blessed yule season. We certainly did. Tonight we will attempt to get caught up on the posts that were neglected while we celebrated the Christmas holiday. First, we took the kids to the mall to beg a stranger for presents for which, ultimately, we would pay for and he would get all the credit. Then we went to our favorite scenic spot within shouting distance from our house to take some Christmas pics that we would have used for our Christmas cards, had we actually sent some out. So, for all of you who didn't get a card from us, consider this post Holiday wishes from the Deals!

The Great Christmas Tree Hunt

Well, we are going to make a more concerted effort to keep the blog updated more regularly. Notice there are a couple of new features on the right side including current weather from Raleigh and possibly the funniest politcal advertisement in the history of elections. If you haven't seen it yet, just click on the video. It's hilarious. Ok, on to the posting. A couple of weeks ago we went out to get our Christmas tree. Things can be done a little differently here than they are in Florida since trees actually grow here. So we set out to the farms to cut down our own tree. We had a blast running through the thousands of trees and just enjoying the beautiful weather. After we had had enough, we went to Home Depot and bought a tree just like we used to in Florida. Maybe next year.
