2007 Christmas Program

Last night we had this year's Sunday School Christmas Program at church. It is always a fun and touching evening. The kids all did an awesome job and it's fun to see them grow and get better each year. Here's Grace's class... she's the one in the wine colored dress in the middle of the front row. Grace's class sang Jesus Loves Me (in English and in Spanish) and Ho-Ho-Hosana. Micah's class did Jesus Loves Me and sang Happy Birthday to Jesus, although Micah was more interested in exploring the stage area than he was in singing! (He's the one in the red sweater at the bottom of the steps!)
Anna enjoyed her last year as a spectator from the comfort of Grandma Barb's lap
... and then later sampled the cookie table with Grandpa Steve!

Tea Party

For Grace's 6th Birthday we had a Tea Party with her little girlfriends from school. It was a lot of fancy and pink fun and the girls really had a good time dressing up and having a fancy tea party! Mommy made a teapot cake for the occassion and we dressed the table up with pretty tablecloths, mommy's luncheon set, rose petals, sparkly sequins, candles and everything girly! What a fun day! The party princesses!
Micah didn't want to be left out ... oh well, he's only 3!

The 1st Snow is the Most fun!

We got several inches of snow a few weeks ago and the kids had so much fun playing in the brand-new white fluff! Daddy-powered sled rides, snow tunnels, snow angels, and making "paw prints" are things you can only do in the snow - and so much the better if it's the first snow of the season! The only bad part comes when you have to go back inside! ;)


Santa Baby!

Can't really see her, but that's Anna under the big red hat!

Making Cookies at Aunt Kathy's

Thanksgiving weekend Grace and I made cookies at my Aunt Kathy's house with my two sisters, Kate & Jessica, aunts Kathy and Susan, and a friend of Kate's (Sam). It was a fun and messy afternoon of baking and uncles Jim and Don did a good job of "supervising" the excess of estrogen and sugar that was going on in the kitchen! ;) Grace had an especially fun time! Serving quality control samples to the uncles :)
Mmmm!
It was a fun and goofy time!
