lena practicing her rock and roll splits for the wedding.

our little flower girl- lena

linsey wants a new car she says...santa says oh- one you can ride in? duh!

oh that's right...joel and i got a special wedding wish from santa...he didnt even ask us what we wanted...

margie before she realizes santa is holding her.

margie after she notices it is indeed santa- who she doesn't care for...

christmas morning holds a special schlegelmich tradition of shotting things with an old 22. this is the first year i actually was up to the challange.

even moms shoot guns on christmas.

my big sis and her hubby...

my christmas present i get everyday.

grandpa schlegelmilch and sandy the puppy...killer boots man!

the winner of the christmas shoot out was matt. second place linsey. third tie of joel and kim. i somehow managed to not even hit my dang target. i told them, "i shoot cameras- not guns." they said if it were a camera i would rock at shooting things. there is always next christmas.
