I'm going to attempt to begin catching up on this blog...I'm 9 months behind, but I feel it is important to do...so slowly but surely I will do it! Here goes...let's finish off 2012 first!
At the start of December is my favorite time! I get to put up all our Christmas decorations, and Christmas parties begin! Jack's work had a family Christmas Party, Jacob was the only one who wanted to see Santa.... Our ward had their Christmas party breakfast. The primary children sang a song, and I had the privilege of singing Silent Night. There were many wonderful musical presentations depiciting the First Christmas.
Here's a collage of a few other December pictures I liked, before we head into Christmas pictures!
Now on to Christmas....my sister Valeriane and her family came to spend Christmas with us this year again! We have so much fun with the Wilson family. The kids love having their cousins around to play with.
Here was our Christmas "card" for the season-
Christmas was wonderful, as usual, this year. The kids loved their gifts...which included new scooters for each of the boys, a Super Hero cape I made Katy (to match the ones the boys got last Christmas), walkie talkie's, dinosaur building sets, I'm sure there was more but thats all I can remember. I LOVE the bottom middle picture below...such a classic Christmas reaction from children!! We loved having the Wilson' around to celebrate the holiday with us- lots of memories made.
Knowing Sean is Mr.Handy I asked him to help us build some shelves in the garage....well, he got right up, grabbed a measuring tape and got to work! This guy loves building things, and is good at it. Since then, I've had a few neighbors ask for him to build shelves in their garage next time he comes...he could have a small little business going here just doing that alone:) We are lucky that our neighborhood is still building so there were many dumpsters with plenty of usable scrap wood he could use, so we hardly had to buy any wood for the project and we love it! Thanks again Sean for spending your time off building shelves for us!!!
