Pictures From the Last Month

Making turkey cookies for FHE.

 Random picture of our two babies.

 Opening our surprise advent calendar from my sister-in-law and her kids. It's so awesome!! Every day we draw a piece of paper and it has a fun activity for us to do like "draw a picture of Christmas", "make snowflakes", or "sing a Christmas carol". Many of them come with a package that is dropped off later in the day by the mailman. It will say, "Watch a Christmas movie", "Play a game", or "Warm your toes" and opening the package we will find a new movie, game, or fuzzy socks for the entire family. Our favorite so far is the Piano Guys Christmas CD. We're having a blast!!  It has made our holiday so special. We hardly care about Christmas coming because everyday feels like Christmas when you have such a fun advent calendar. It will forever be a special memory for us. 

 Kylie's traditional choco mallow brownies she makes when we decorate our tree.

 Watching the Christmas devotional

 Ready to listen to "The Christmas Carol" that Nathan reads on the day the calendar says, "Read a Christmas story." They love to crochet while he reads and the little three are in bed. More sweet memories!

 A little cyst that was removed. He told my family about it, so I'm posting the picture for them to see. Next he's getting his adenoids removed in January.

 How Samuel looked for a five days while he had a 104 fever. He wouldn't stop dripping. (I don't know how I got him to smile for this picture; he rarely smiled.)

 Next Makenna got it.

 And Madalyn was the 3rd.  

 Trying to get Samuel to eat. He hardly ate for over a week.

 Recovering, but still got the rosy cheeks.

We're all well now and I love seeing Samuel running around again, full of life.

 Kaitlyn's first haircut. I've put it off for a long time because she had such pretty curls. But lately it's mostly straightened out or tangly.
