Christmas continued

Mom and Dad came and visited for a few days before Christmas.  We opened presents with them, and family was very generous with their gifts for the kids.






We spent a week with John David's parents and enjoyed a lot of family time.

Hooray for a snow day!

We have a much needed snow day today.  Madelyn has been sick, and we had a very busy weekend that ended with a sick Madelyn and an ER visit for Pierce resulting in 5 staples in his head.  Everyone is fine now, but we needed a recovery day.  We prayed last night for a healthy Madelyn and a snow day; Jehovah Jireh!  I took the obligatory snow day pictures before arguing, snow ball fighting, and Julia screaming about being cold happened.  The big three are still outside, but Julia is cozy and warm and watching a little Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.






Happy Tuesday!

Christmas-finally.

Between busy schedules and major technical difficulties, it's been hard to update photos and the blog, but I'm finally back online with a useful computer.  We had a busy Christmas season with parties, concerts, Grandparents' Day at school, and family Christmas celebrations.

Our kids' school hosts Grandparents' Day on the last day before Christmas vacation, so John David's dad and Mom and Dad came to the fun.  John David's mom, unfortunately, had to work.  Both of the kids did great in their roles, and a good time was had by all.  Here are a few pictures and videos during their performance.
