Tidmore Family: January 2006

Pictures - YEAH!!!

I know you thought it would never happen, but we have pictures!! Can you believe it! You can thank a one Matthew Tidmore for showing me how to do this. Now that we have the digital camera it is a snap! Hope you enjoy.

Yah-Yah has a special tree every Christmas for Olivia. It is a gumdrop tree. Liv loves it so much that she will pull up one of mom’s kitchen chairs and stare at the tree. I have never seen the child be still for that long, but the tree is so pretty is mesmerizes her. Isn’t my mom great!

Jerm and Livey Time

This is Uncle Jerm and Liv. They are playing the “Melmo” game on the computer. Liv loves playing this game especially if she gets to play with Uncle Jerm. It is called Elmo’s Keyboard-O-Rama and for those of you with little kids, below is the link to get to the game. When you press a letter or number on the key board, Elmo tells you what it is and shows you either an item that begins with the letter you selected or he counts to the number you entered. Fun time!

Regan & Liv BFF

After Christmas, Rachael Cleckler Dooley and I were able to get together. We had a wonderful time catching up and remembering hysterical things from the past. Here is a picture of her Daughter Reagan and Liv. We thought since we became friends while we were babies, they should too!

Christmas at the Kings

This is our Christmas with Yah-Yah and Papa. We had a wonderful time. There were a lot of people there. Uncle Jeremy and Aunt Amber – aka Uncle Jerm and Aunt Bamber. Our Kentucky family was also there. Mamaw Wells, Uncle Mike, Aunt Mary, Evan, Jessica, and Noel. Yah-Yah read the meanings of our names and a bible verse and a prayer for us in 2006. It was so thoughtful and very meaningful to all of us. We also opened presents, ate yummy steaks and side dishes, and then we played games. Everyone had such a great time!

This is Christmas at Maw-Maw and Paw-Paw’s. We had a great time!
Aunt Bailey, Uncle Shawn, and the Epplings were there.

On Christmas Eve, we had Christmas with Grandmother, Aunt Brenda, Aunt Judy and Uncle James, Uncle Erin, Aunt Marcie, Alysa, and Kyle. We read the True Christmas Story and then had a cake to celebrate Jesus’ birthday.

This is when we went to Horse Shoe Bend. It is a street near us that everyone visits to see the lights. Some nights they have live reindeer. We went with Matt and Amy Castleman (My Matt and Mamie) and their nieces. Liv thought it was great and we had to convince her that she could not stay in the decorated Elmo house.
