Gingerbread Tree House

The kids did a great job on this gingerbread tree house.  It is always fun to see how they decide to decorate.  

 

Christmas Caroling

Sunday, we went caroling with our church.  It was a lot of fun and we had over 45 people with us.

Helicopter Ride

Today, I got to go on a helicopter ride through a spousal lift at the AASF.  It was really cool and amazing to see the Cedar Valley from a different perspective.  

 

St. Nicholas Day 2021

 The kids set out their shoes and St. Nick came on the 6th.  Always a fun tradition. 

Under the tree

 Just like his Dad he loves to lay under the tree!

Trimming the tree

The lights were put on and the kids helped decorate.  Joanna placed the star and our tree is just as beautiful as every year.  

 

Christmas Tree 2021

We got our tree December 1st.  Max cut it down, all the boys carried it, I got it in the stand and my friend, Kacie helped me get it straight.  We almost didn't get one because I was anti-real tree this year.  But a sweet friend with a sweet note convinced me it was a good idea! And it was!

 

Morning Routine

 This is my kids every morning!  Crowded around a little heater reading books.

Thanksgiving 2021

Although we spent it apart we still got a picture together.
