Santa and Ely

So I took Ely this morning to meet Santa thinking Ely was going to scream and cry...nope he smiled and laughed and pulled Santa's beard. He's so excited for Christmas and told Santa everything he wanted. I also told Santa all Mamma wants for Christmas is a silent night.

We miss you so much Dad...

Nicci Spratley and Lynn Wilson are sad to report the death of their father, Christopher Siegfried, who died on November 28th, 2008, after an eighteen month battle with cancer. He was 54 years old and worked for Salt River Project. A devoted father and grandfather, he was heavily involved with his church and enjoyed life to the fullest each and every day. Chris will be sorely missed by all who knew and loved him.

We are so thankful...
