Delish

One of our holiday traditions, hot cocoa and candy canes!  


Makes Ya Wonder….



How did her knee get hurt?  Sliding into home of course!

Silly Surgery




Mia hurt her knee so Daddy performed surgery on the table, while Ansley assisted!  These people are so silly!  The good news is her knee was healed with very little recovery time! :-)


Brrrrr…..

New hats and gloves just in the nick of time!  It snowed today!  Ughhh…how many more weeks until summer?

Blessings


This morning the girls performed for choir at church.  What a gift to see so many children loving Jesus!   I am so thankful for our church and God's continued work in our lives!

It's Beginning to look a lot like Christmas!


















While S. was in VA with friends hunting, relaxing, "in his happy place", the girls and I sprinkled Christmas cheer.   I LOVE Christmas and am so thankful for God's gift to the world!   Now I can be still and know He is God!   

Fabulous Friday!

Breakfast at school….that's the kind of morning it was!

Precious friends….Ella Kate and Emma Grace invited us to a book signing and we saw Uncle Si…..girls said he was "fake".   Love it!


Keith Christopher signing the book he wrote about the First Christmas!  

Girls loving their new Christmas book!

Ansley and Mia celebrating Libby.  She is moving to Florida this week.  She is a sweet girl that we are going to miss!   This is a great group of girls!

Our Little Turkeys


Mia made me this darling turkey for Thanksgiving.  I love that her precious hand created this masterpiece!  


Thankful for these two!

Praying....

I am so glad to report that my family in Central Illinois is safe after todays devastating  storms.  Now we are on watch as I type this.  I am praying everyone stays safe this evening in middle TN.

Round-up Sunday



Today was Round-Up at church.  We were rounding up toys for the Toy Store to help families in need this Christmas.  Cowgirl Cuties!

2nd Grade Field trip.



Ansley and Emma Grace learning together at the Discovery Center.  


Scott accompanied Ansley on her field trip on Friday.  They had fun learning about animals.  Love these special memories.  


Expander....



On Thursday, 11/14/13 Miss Mia got her expander and final stage of phase one of her jaw correction.   So now we have a new bedtime routine which includes BRUSHING and expanding her upper teeth.  We needed a little more crazy!  Notice she chose red and green rubber bands b/c she doesn't go back until after Christmas and wanted to be ready!  Love her!
