The Life And Times Of James M. Wisler

Archive for January, 2009

The holidays were very fun and very busy for the Wisler household, which is why I haven’t written any notes here for a while.  We spent Thanksgiving at a family gathering in Fort Scott, KS, then a small at-home celebration for Melissa’s birthday (a.k.a. Stu Day), followed by a trip to Hutchinson for Christmas and then hosting a small family-friendly event with a few other parents and kids at our home for New Years Eve.  Glancing over at the http://mac.wisler.org/ I see that I didn’t make a post regarding Melissa and mine 4th wedding anniversary either, which we celebrated in early Nov.  As I said, its been a fun and busy couple of months.

This first pic of the kids that was taken on picture day at Googols Of Learning.  We usually get pictures taken of the kids every year to send out with holiday cards, but since these pictures were taken so close to the holidays, we just decided to use them instead.  I had been planning on getting a full family photo taken, but Melissa  is a little camera shy and since we were able to use this picture instead of going to a portrait studio again then she was able to weasel her way out of getting her picture taken.  Foiled again!

The other two pictures are of Ada and James decorating the Christmas tree.  They were very well behaved with the ornaments during the tree trimming, but we later had to move all of the glass bulbs up out of reach or else James would be pulling them off the tree.
