Christmas 2013

Christ is Born! Glorify HIM!!

We had a Blessed Christmas here in MN! We have had a really cold December so far and Christmas did not disappoint. It snowed about 3 inches of additional snow while we were at Church on Christmas Eve! The kids were not sure they could wait for presents till after Church, Christmas Morning, and then Brunch...but they did it and we enjoyed a quiet day of Games and Food with a friend from church!

Hope you all had a Special Day!

GETTING READY FOR SANTA!

SJ and JM put the cookies our for Santa this year! I guess the other 2 were already in bed! JM has that "smile" ready as he sits in front of the fireplace!! Some one did catch a real smile earlier in the evening! That smile can light up a room!

I believe "Santa" only left a crumb!

"KRUMKAKE" ANYONE!

Our Friend Fr. Philip had us over a couple of times in December to make cookies. One of his traditions is to make Krumkake! Although we are not of Scandinavian decent...I believe these will be made by our family for many years to come. The ones the kids got photos of are a bit overbrowned...but we got the flame adjusted and made over 8 dozen!! I think they are nearly all gone!

~SPECIAL PERSONS DAY~

   I had the honor of being a "special Person" for one of my god-daughters at her preschool! I captured a few of the many faces of Teagan!!

So blessed to have her and her family in our lives! She is 4 already...where does time go!
