December 2015


We did an "elf" this year. She came with a letter reminding us of the real reason for Christmas, and that our fun with her would be pointing us back to Him, and sharing His love. The girls LOVED it, and I think we enjoyed it to! (Minus the few days I forgot, or intentionally made her "sick!")



We also did Truth in the Tinsel. The girls would get a picture in our Advent box, and then color a coordinating ornament.


One day we made mangers for baby Jesus for a snack. Graham crackers, peanut butter and coconut for the win!


We decorated for Christmas...




And went to our town's Christmas parade!




Ashlynn and I also went with friends to see a short version of the Nutcracker at the library.



And we went out for dinner and pictures with Daddy!



We did a fun run with Gaga, and Ashlynn loved her new tennis shoes!


Surprise...there is the Target dog again!



Our friend Bailey had a fun Frozen party!




Mid party, B came down with a UTI. The rest of that week was spent indoors resting.





Once again I am missing pictures from my phone....GRR! Once I figure it out I will continue where I left off!

60th Anniversary

In November, we celebrated my grandparents 60th wedding anniversary! I am so thankful for their love for one another and for the Lord, and for the legacy they have built.


























Thanksgiving 2015

We started Thanksgiving with a fun lunch and some Name Feathers.



The girls also helped me make turkey cookies.



Each day throughout the month, we each put handprints up of things we were thankful of!


We spent Thanksgiving with Mark's family. It was such a nice relaxing day.


Mrs. Hupp had everything set up so beautifully.


There was even a cute table for the kids.


Ashlynn wasn't feeling 100%, so while she (and I!) napped Bailey sat outside for a while.






Most of the night the girls played with dolls in the study.









Before we left, we had a sweet tea party in our new Christmas jimmies.


Daddy even got in on the fun!
