Making Treats

I love getting our kids involved with giving! That is the point of the season although it's so easy to get missed with the incredible amount of commercialism that goes on! This year, both kids were curious how they could help make treats for their classmates. Although it's small, they are seeing people outside of themselves which I love! Here are a couple of pics of the kids helping with treats and our sweet little friend Kyndall joining in the fun as well.

Parents Night Out

We count it a privilege
to serve at our church with the kids. It's really a fun time and there is never a shortage of precious and crazy moments. Here are a couple of pics from our parents' night out.

Setting up Christmas Deco

This year seems quieter for some reason and let me say Thank you Lord!!! I am really just enjoying the stillness and sweet small moments even with my four pack. Here are some pics of us setting up Christmas in 80 degrees mind you. The kids are getting to an age they are understanding more and more. I was so thrilled to pull out our decorations with them and have them get so excited over a stuffed animal! More importantly, I love that Vivian is now reading our Jesse Tree stories. It's so fun to hear their curious questions about Jesus' family members and how messy life is even in the Bible. I love that God allows us to be messy and uses our messes for His glory. Enjoy some pics.
