Christmas Eve and Day

Christmas is a wonderful time to be with family. We enjoyed a wonderful Christmas service at our church as well as my sister's church. I loved giving the kids their Christmas presents.
 Eva enjoyed her new doll, Samantha, in her Christmas dress. She loved it!

Christmas Joy

Concerts for all. Cookies for all. Santa appearing more than once! What a fun month.










Happy 3rd Birthday Hudson

The teachers at Hudson's school have said, "No one told me that I was getting an angel added to my classroom."  The women at the health club think Hudson is the sweetest boy around. We love Hudson too. He can go at top speed on his bike and razor scooter. He loves legos, cars, trucks, and trains. He plays well with his art supplies and kinetic sand. He is very articulate. He loves Luke and Eva. He goes to Montessori school three days a week. He has not napped since he was two. He was happy with his hot wheels presents.

 Hudson helped make his cake this year and he picked out the ingredients. We love our Hudson.

Thanksgiving

It is wonderful to be with family during Thanksgiving. The Saturday before Thanksgiving we went to visit Jackie and Riley's beautiful new home. Judah and Hudson are looking like brothers.
Now, back at our house Luke and Boden have matching chrome books and are putting them to good use.

 Here is my mom less than 48 hours after she got out of the hospital. We are glad she could be with us. I set the table with cloth napkins from London that my mom bought me when she was there on her last trip.
 Hope's first Thanksgiving.
 We hosted 22 people for Thanksgiving this year. We were not able to have flag football because of the rain.
 Here are all the big kids playing with Hudson's Lego's making a masterpiece.
 Papa will be 73 and Hudson will be 3 in a few days.

 Tricia teaching gymnastics.

 Now we are in Watertown celebrating with Dave's family (21 people). Here is Hudson helping Grandma cut the pies. We also enjoyed Friday all together. We went swimming at the YMCA, watched Star Wars, and then had pizza while the kids played at our house. The girls did three dance routines. The older boys perfected their digital bowling. The younger boys enjoyed all of the activity. Sorry there are not any pictures from Friday.
