Our First Recital and First Snow!!!

Couldn't pass this up for a post.
Isaac had his Christmas recital Sat. He played Away in a Manger and Silent Night. We were so proud. I'm so excited to have him take piano and hope to glean from his experience.


We had our first snow on Sunday. It has been cooold but I love it. We've had to call a couple "snow days" sticking to our math and L.A. schedule but enjoyingthe snow while it lasts.

Oh There's No Place Like Home for the Holidays!!!

With the:
undefeated soccer season ending,

the field trip to the MET Museum,

the Christmas party with our home school coop,

the tree trimming,

and hand made Christmas gifts and letter to get done.

There's simply no time to be here!
So, we'll see you in the New Year!!
May you have a blessed Christmas full of Christ!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

This year I hosted Thanksgiving for the first time. Whew, what a lot of work. We had about 17 people (counting kids) and I believe we maxed out my new table. It was so nice to have everyone in our home. I pray all felt blessed, were able to relax and be refreshed. I know my kids definitely enjoyed having everyone over. There's just something about their family coming to see them in their environment that is soo special.
We had the Wallaces over (friends of ours and their youngest son plays soccer with Isaac), my sister, and my folks and 3 nieces.
