Josiah's Turn

Last night Josiah asked me if he could do a blog post.  Yes, those were his exact words.  I have trained him well.  So here is what Josiah wanted to post:

"I am thankful for everything that God created."

...and I am thankful for Josiah!

Play Time!

Mikayla has been having a lot of fun with the nativity set!

Mikayla's First Hunt

Mikayla had a good time hanging around as we searched for the perfect tree!

Faith found a cute one just her size!!!

The Littlest Angel!!!

Faith was the littlest angel in the Christmas Program this year!  She was adorable!!!  Josiah was a cute shepherd.  The kids did a great job recreating the Christmas Story!

Thankful!

Every year we reflect on what we are thankful for.  Today is Josiah's turn to post to the blog.  So, here is what he has to say:

I am thankful for my shoes, because they keep my feet warm, and my clothes that keep my body warm.  My backpack so I can carry heavy stuff.  I'm thankful for my friends. God, because he is right next to me.  My house because it is a place for us to live.  My family because they keep me company.  The Earth because that's where we live.  Aunts, cousins, grandparents, uncles, cameras, so we can take pictures of our family.  Animals, school, the Bible, whistles, tracks, food, light, and sound.

Caramel Apples

Caramel apple time!  We have a lot of fun each year making caramel apples.  One thing I love about the Pacific Northwest is the apples and strawberries!  This was Faith's first time really being able to make one.

Yum!!!

Snuggle Buddies!

These girls are best buddies!  At least for now!
