Decorating for Christmas

 
 The kids couldn't wait to decorate for Christmas...they were super excited!  they loved it and we put up our first purchased tree in 9 years...it was so nice not to string lights on the tree for at least an hour! Christmas is so magical with little kids.  This past Saturday Sarah asked me if Santa was real...I didn't have to say anything cause  Jonathan said with conviction YES!  We are believers over here..it is so fun!

















Enjoying Thanksgiving break!

WE enjoyed our break...the kids had Wednesday off and Dave also had Wednesday off...we enjoyed being together as a family...This is Sarah saying that she is thankful for her brothers and then pulls them in for love...she really does love her brothers no matter how much she bugs/torments them...They enjoyed knew snow and playing in it!  Friday we enjoyed having relaxing time after doing some responsibilities!







The Pinewood Derby

Jonathan's first pinewood derby and he even got an award although he asked Dave why he never won a race...we will see what happens next year...there was lots of learning from Dave and Jonathan...a late night for Dave the night before trying to fix the wheels, sanding, repainting!  Jonathan's was a minion and he loved it!



First Snow Strom

The first snow...we got the other three off to work and school... then the boys wanted to go out...although Henry didn't want to put his snow gear on...well Mother knows best and I persisted for 20 minutes... once he got out there and understood why he needed it on...he didn't fight it!  We were outside for about and hour and half.  Such a good start of the winter season!
