Warning: Disgusting Potty Humor

I walked into the bathroom and found Madi sitting on the toilet. She started singing, "Happy Birthday to You" and when she was finished with the song, jumped up and said, "Tada! Here's your presenent!" as she pointed to the contents of the toilet. Gross!

Feliz Navidad

Christmas morning at home...what a rare treat! The stocking photos are not staged. Have you ever seen 2 people more excited to get toothbrushes? We had a lovely Christmas.

Christmas Stockings

I cannot recommend making your own Christmas stockings. These took me most of the Advent season, and you can probably find similar ones at Hobby Lobby for $5.

Early Christmas

Early Christmas with GaGa Brenda, Papa Jerry, aunts, uncles, and toddler Christian. Madi attempts to put on a record number of accessories.

Our Christmas photo session courtesy of our sweet neighbor Chantal. Two of the kids' friends hopped in for some pics at the end.

We toured a historic home that was decorated for Christmas. The kids were surprisingly into it, though Madi was terrified of the giant Santa and Gingerbread Man that roamed the grounds. On the plus side, they served wassail, hot cocoa, and cookies.

Christmas Play

Caleb was a lamb and Madi was an angel in the Christmas play this year. They did so well! Madi really enjoyed the singing and the hand motions. The congregation seemed to really enjoy watching their performance.
