Christmas Time


The week before Christmas and all through the house there was action and excitement and little voices singing.



The time before Christmas is a busy time of the season. It was time to finish wrapping and purchasing Christmas presents and time to attend the childrens Christmas Parties at school. We started the week with Addison's Dance Christmas Party.







Next was Addison's Christmas Party at Preschool. The had a performance and then snack and crafts.





Addison saying the blessing before eating. It was so cute. After a few Addison days it was Ethan's turn to have his party. I was so busy helping out in the classroom that I forgot to take pictures. I did however video tape his concert which was really cute. For Sydney once you hit Intermediate school the parties are for the children only plus poor Sydney was sick Friday with her breathing issues She and I spent the morning in the doctors office before heading to Grandma and Grandpa's. We spent the weekend in Augusta with them and Hudson and had a blast.



We enjoyed some hiking and Ethan learned to shot a BB gun. O' what fun it is to be on lot of land to play.

Thanksgiving Break

We had a nice Thanksgiving Break. The children get a whole week off of school so we get to catch up on rest. We spent on of our days off at Lenox. We rode the Pink Pig visited with Santa and had lunch.



We spent Thanksgiving day with Granny. Then Saturday the girls and I went down to Grandma and Grandpa's house for a visit. We had a great time playing in the woods and we built a big fire. The boys stayed home and had a football weekend.
