An Inconvenient Truth

It's cold! And here I bought land in Alaska and bathing suits for the kids based on some secret inside information from a close source! Can you guess who these sweet babies are??? Same tree, same snowsuit, different baby! The top pic is of IJ in 2002 and the bottom pic is F, today. The tree is one that we bought our first Christmas together as a new, blended family. We have a Christmas ornament from 2001 with a picture of M, L, A, and I right after we planted the tree in the front yard. The picture is one of my favorites, mostly because A and M look like they just buried a good friend, but it was taken before we had a digital camera so I can't post it until M scans it. Along with our Santa picture from this year... Anyways, a few years ago we transplanted the tree to the backyard. Here is one of my favorite clowns pretending to ride his scooter in the snow. And here is another blast from the past picture-with-the-Christmas-tree (also 2002)... and the current picture posers...
