Christmas Traditions

Once again, time has gotten the best of us and we are behind on the blog.  Sorry!  Just assume no news is good news! ;)

December was full off Christmas traditions.  It is so fun to share them with Hannah for the first time.  The kids look forward to our traditions each year.  It is a special time that we celebrate Jesus' birthday.  We are so thankful for the gift of Jesus and the many ways God has blessed our family.

Hockey Season is in Full Swing!

With three hockey players in the house, we spend a lot of time at the rink.  Nathan is playing with his house league team in addition to some jamborees with a travel team.  Claire and Micah are in mini-mites and this weekend played their first game of the season.  All three are having a lot of fun and enjoy their time on the ice.

Our favorite hockey players!

Nathan ready to play in his first Jamboree in Springfield.  He was so excited to play four games in one day.  His team won 3 of 4 games.  Nathan played goalie one game and earned his first shut-out.  It was fun!

Blog Catch-up

We are behind!  Here are the highlights from mid-November to mid-December.  Enjoy!

The one and only semi-decent picture from Thanksgiving.  

After hiking the whole field, we found our tree!

Deanna and Claire sang in A Community Christmas: It's Christmas! 

It was a wonderful time of worship and celebrating the birth of our Savior, Jesus.

Finally decorating our tree...a week after cutting it down.  Did we mention it has been a bit busy?!
