The Moss Family Christmas Letter.

Christmas time has come once more.

This year has been anything but a bore.

We packed up the fam & moved to a new city.

So alot of adjusting & making the house pretty.

Matthew is still working for Orange P.D.

While hard at work he busted his knee!

A surgery later & some recovery time too;

He's back with the gang unit, good as new!

Danielle (that's me) is busier than ever!

Raising 4 kids though hard is my greatest pleasure.

I had a mishap of my own this summer.

Broke my ankle right before the move, such a bummer!

Ellie turned 6; she's getting so big!

Soccer, dance & soon piano are her gig.

With 1st grade over halfway through.

Reading & writing are her favorite things to do.

Carson played soccer; he was Mighty Tiger #2.

Can't believe he's 4 now, how time just flew!

He will graduate preschool soon & go to a new school.

Kindergarten will be great cuz "the playground is cool!"

Hunter will turn 3 this Christmas Day.

It's never dull with him around I must say!

With Toy Story playing at our house 24/7.

As long as he's busy he's in heaven!

Macie although 18 months, is already a terrible 2.

Her favorite thing is to wear everyone's shoes.

With 2 older brothers she is quit tough.

She's such a pistol, but we can't get enough!

#5 we are adding to our crazy crew.

Thought we were done! Shows what we knew :)

The new addition will be here in June.

Girl, or Boy? We will find out soon!

We're grateful for our loved ones this Holiday Season.

And despite the hustle 'n' bustle that we remember the reason.

That Christ was born to be our guiding light.

May we all do our best to keep him in sight.

We wish you a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!

Love, The Moss Family

PURE TROUBLE!

Although she is only 1, our Macie is advanced for her age, because she is already in the TERRIBLE TWOS!! She has learned quite well from her 2 year brother how to behave accordingly! I knew she was too quiet so I went upstairs to check on her and this smiley face is what I found :)

We have only been in our house a few weeks now and she ventured into MY closet found a box of make-up inside a packing box and proceeded to give herself a make over!
Thank you so much Macie not only for making a mess but for doing it on my BRAND NEW CARPET instead of on the tile where you pulled the make-up out of!! I have a feeling we are going to be living in the land of mischief for awhile with this one!! Wish us luck :)

Divine Dance Recital

This is Ellie's third year dancing! I can't believe it! She had her dance recital this weekend and did an amazing job!! I always get nervous for her to go on that big stage in front of all those people cuz she tends to get shy around strangers. She never ceases to amaze me though ;) You can't help but be a proud Momma when moments like these roll around! Great job Ellie Ray you did a FANTASTIC job and we are so, so proud of you!!

Ellie had lots of people cheering her on (she is a lucky girl)
- with her Oma and Papa.

Grandma and Grandpa came too!

and of course her siblings:Hunter, Ellie, Macie & Carson

We are so proud of our little performer and all the hard work she puts into her talent. We look forward to many more years of watching her dance :)
