2008 Struve Christmas

Wesley had a good 1st Christmas. We were excited to wake up Christmas morning & it was snowing. We had fun with my family.
Wesley sitting in his cousin's chair

My dad, Annikka & Nathan..{my niece & nephew}

Wesley loves to put things in his mouth no matter what it is...sorry little Annikka!!

Did I mention that he loves to lick things also?!?!

Did I also mention that Welsey doesn't stop moving & he loves to fling his arms around!!!

It is so hard trying to get everyone's attention...the 3 cousins on Christmas morning.

My brother Michael & Nathan.

This is one of Wesley's presents we gave him... a rainforest jumperoo. He loves it so much so it was a good pick on Santa's part. Little Annikka fell asleep in it.

Wesley's presents from Santa....he got more then mom & dad!!

The family opening presents on Christmas morning.

My car on Christmas morning...I miss the snow so much.
Wesley's 1st Sledding Adventure:

Locks of Love:
I did Locks of Love the day after Christmas. The longest hair that was cut was 13 inches long...

I LOVED the pictures Holly. It is so fun to see the family. But where is Grandma Jackie?? I see your mom still has her tree branch curtain rods in the living room. LOL And where was Amy? Wish I could have seen you all. I have forgotten what snow looks like. Haven't seen that much snow in a long time. Love your hair too. What a nice thing you did. Take care and keep posting pictures!!

Love all your pics!! And WOW! you cut a lot of your hair! And it looks so cute! I want to see what the front of it looks like, too! So nice of you to donate to locks of love. I have a very dear friend that went through chemo and lost all of her hair, and it was so hard for her to find a wig with real hair that wasn't crazy expensive. Some lady will be so very appreciative of what you've done!! :)

I really like your snow pics! And your hair looks awesome!! I've always wanted to do that, but my hair grows so slow and I get too antsy waiting for it to get long. Wesley is just adorable though in every single picture!! That kid got some good genes...
