CHRISTMAS SPIRIT

Here's some things that have made this december fun
leading up to Christmas...

FAMILY GATHERING
with Anderson cousins

MOM'S NEW BELLS
for playing Christmas songs
and primary singing time.

PAPER SNOWFLAKES
to decorate our house, tree,
and to give to neighbors & teachers.

SNOW & CROSS COUNTRY SKIIS!
Donny and Mollie have been having a blast
in their fields around the house.
The kids are hoping Santa brings them some to

HOLLAND'S FIRST BIRTHDAY

HOLLAND is constantly sucking her thumb
while pulling at her ear at the same time.

Holland walks around with this little green frog
her grandma gave her.
She's a cuddle bug.

Aunt Sophie continues to beautify our girls.
She sent up these hats on Holland's birthday.
The girls love them and have sold a few
for Sophie and given a few to friends.

OUR NEW WALKER IS PRACTICALLY RUNNING

Thankful For...

1. MYRIAM'S SMILE

Myriam finally pulled out both front teeth just in time to sing,
"All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth."
Uncle Mitch pulled out the first one just before thanksgiving.
It was hanging by a thread.
Cam, our neighbor next door, pulled out her second one
the day he got home from Thanksgiving break.
He's a dentist, so she trusts him I guess!
She dropped it on his carpet and couldn't find it.
so she left a note for the toothfairy telling him/her it was next door.
The next day the neighbor kids came running over with a dollar
they found on their floor!

2. MOLLIE'S EYES

This Thanksgiving Mollie gained gratitude for her eyes!
She accidently forgot her contact solution,
so she borrowed Levi's "Clean and Clear" Solution.
In the morning it burned her eye and made for a miserable day.
Luckily it healed after a day or two!
