Littles enjoying the tree...
Mommy helped with the snowman.
Daddy dug out caves and built 2 castle walls.
The week before Christmas brought a tough virus into our home.
One which we are still trying to kick out.
Each day we hoped we would all be healthy and ready to get together with family and friends,
but it did not work out that way this year.
No vomiting or diarrhea today, so hopefully we are at the end.
The children on Christmas Eve.
Even flu isn't going to keep smiles off of their faces.
Why are these stacked up here so nicely?
A bit timid opening gifts this year.
A bow and arrow.
Our Laura Ingalls girl.
Our princess.
Little man with flashlight and bow.
he is ready to go practice shooting deer downstairs.
I almost built a tower that reached the ceiling, just inches short of 9 feet.
Christmas morning!
Happy Birthday, Jesus!
Our baby's first Christmas.
Grandpa and Grandma braved the flu bug at our house.
Unfortunately we shared more than gifts with them this year.
Sorry you are not feeling well!
Our Advent this year....Knowing Him By Name...we put His names on rocks.
Today.
Walking back from chores.
Working his tractor in the snow.
Our frozen ice globes!
Anticipating gifts from Papa and Nana,
but wishing we were at their house with them today.
Playing with the new treasures from Papa and Nana.
Thank you Jesus for the many gifts you have given our family in 2012.
