Kallie's Baptism

Natalie let me tape her singing the song she was too nervous to sing at Kallie's baptism.

Happy Earth Day!

After school we realized that everyone was unintentionally wearing green on Earth Day.

White Christmas

Christmas Morning

Heidi left a note for Santa that said, "You are so nis (nice) Santa I wish I could be like you"
Christmas morning in Grandma's room.

Christmas Eve

We were so excited when it started to snow on Christmas Eve.

John E. loved having a new kind of ball to play with.

Santa USA

Santa landed at the school in a helicopter.
We followed Santa to the next school because Mitchell wanted to get Rudolph's autograph. Too bad Rudolph can't write. Mitchell was fine with getting to sit in the helicopter instead.

John really didn't like Frosty the Snowman.
I thought Natalie would be excited to see Santa with all his friends in a helicopter. She didn't like any part of it.

Happy Birthday Jaden!

Everyone came over to sing Happy Birthday to Jaden and watch John try to blow out her candles. Thanks for sharing the spotlight Jaden.

It was really hard trying to shop for Jaden's birthday this year. She is too old for toys, clothes are too girly and she already has everything in the world related to soccer. Who would have guessed that all we had to get her was a package of plastic cups to build a tower with.
