In the Words of Miss Jane Pittman...

"How far back you wanna go?"
(I am fully aware that only my mom got that reference, and that's OK.)

I have been a bad blogger.  I told everyone in our Christmas letter to check out our blog, and then proceeded not to post a single thing for three months.  Bad.

Rather than go back and write all the posts I should have written, I'm going to do a couple catch-up posts.  This one is courtesy of the unedited pictures on my phone (Christmas gift from my family).  Perhaps sometime soon I'll do a catch-up post with pictures from my camera (which I apparently haven't been using much lately).

(Wow--getting pictures from my phone to the blog was incredibly easy.  Gotta love technology.)

Jeremiah was a shepherd in his preschool Christmas play.  He told me his costume was red so I put a red shirt on him.  Clearly, it is peach.  I blame it on lack of memory rather than lack of color knowledge.

At the end of football season, while waiting for his game to start, Joshua lost his second front tooth.  He has remained two-top-toothless to this very day.  Yes, he sang the song at Christmas.

Speaking of Christmas, this is how you fit 13 Campbells for dinner at Grandma and Grandpa's house.

Joshua getting more shooting lessons. He really got into it this time.

I promise you, that little dark spot in the sky is a bald eagle that flew over us when we went for a hike around Grandma and Grandpa's land on Christmas Day.  Click on it to enlarge it, and you might be able to see its white head.

Poking the little skims of ice on the creek during our hike.

More of the hike.

Climbing the final hill back to the house.

Joshua showing off his target from another day of shooting.

The only snow we saw this winter--a couple days after Christmas at my mom's house.  It had all melted a couple hours later.

Back home, checking out ducks along the Reedy River.

Joshua had to have a cyst surgically removed from his cheek.  He did an excellent job and was rewarded with a milkshake.

Jeremiah playing Angry Birds on Joseph's iPod.

Joseph trying his photography skills while Joshua tried his opossum skills.

Hey, look!  There's me!

Joseph tries his hand at architecture at the Children's Museum.

We went to the circus, thanks to a Christmas gift from Grandma and Grandpa.

Joseph's new glasses, which he chose himself.

Abraham Lincoln sock puppet.

Joseph and Joshua ran the Reedy River Kids Mile.  Joseph finished right under 9 minutes, and Joshua right under 10.

Pajama Day at Brewsters--free ice cream!

Chocolate chip pie for Pi Day at Joseph's school, decorated by Joseph.

Grammy told the waiter it was Tony's birthday.  She didn't realize that would get Tony the big sombrero.

Congratulations for making it to the end of this post!  Can't wait to see what's on my camera.  : )
