Little ones make Christmas so special....

Last night Kaleb and I rushed after work to make my nephew, Jack's, Christmas concert. Jack has just turned four and his pre-school put on the sweetest program. He was singin' his guts out and when he saw me in the crowd he let out a surprised "Aunt Abby!!!" that could be heard in the back of the room! So cute! I love my little Jack-a-doo!

We have no children of our own (yet), but the nieces and nephews brighten our lives. As of today...we have 10 nieces and nephews. The newest addition is Baby Khan (name to follow)...Macie and Vijai's newest baby girl arrived today around 3:00pm!!!! Yeah! Here are my neices and nephews for future reference ( I tend to talk and brag about them a ton!)

Miranda-13 (My brother Chris and Heidi's oldest)
Brittany-12 (Chris and Heidi's second)
Ethan-6 (My sister Marci and Steve's oldest)
Ella-1 1/2 (Marci and Steve's second)
Jack-4 (My brother Andy and Katie's oldest)
Lucy-2 (Andy and Katie's second)
Cassidy-4 weeks (Andy and Katie's newest)
Meela-2 (My sister Macie and Vijai's oldest)
Baby girl-a few hours old (Macie and Vijai's newest)
Kendon-four months old (Kaleb's sister Aliah and Will's first)

The list has grown considerably this year! I will have pictures to follow as I get the blog up and running. (Family email me and let me know if you care if I post pictures with your family in them) With no kids of my own yet...I tend to talk a ton about these cuties!

I love that having the children around just seems to make everything brighter...especially the holiday season!

So tell me great bloggers of the world.....

How do I create a great template? The generic one is going to get pretty old........

Temples

I thought this was a pretty sweet little gadget! A different LDS temple from around the world will be displayed each day.

Trying it out...

So, I am a blog stalker. I admit it...I have come clean. I love keeping up with the coming and going of all of my friends. However, I am feeling a little guilty. If I stalk you...you should have the right to stalk me. Fair?

So here we go...I will give it a whirl. I feel completely lost in this blogging world, and don't quite know if I have anything interesting to blog about!

I thank Koreena for the Thankful Thursday invention and feel it will be a great addition to my life. Well, that will be one blog per week! As for the rest...we will see.

For those friends old and new...know that I think of you often and wish you only the best. This is my attempt to keep in better contact! Lots of love...Abby (Lindner) Widmier
