Life group Christmas party


































I'm really disappointed with myself- I had made a slide show and it wouldn't load on my blog so that is why I have so many pictures on the blog. I still need help trying to figure out this blog site.
We had a great time during our party. The kids had a great time decorating cookies, playing with their friends and opening their gifts!

Putting the Christmas tree together






















The girls had a great time helping Jason put the tree together.

Katie's dance recital






















Katie had her dance recital on Friday night and she was great. You can tell she just loves the stage. She was upset when they didn't have a finale because," I wanted to go on big stage and have everyone clap for me again."

Katie's dance rehearsal




























Katie had her dance rehearsal tonight and tomorrow is the dance recital. She did really good tonight so I know she will be fine tomorrow. She is so excited to be on the big stage.
I'll post more pictures later.

Zoe and Gabriel's birthday party

Then Danny, Brian, Ken and Jason had to show each other up.
I'm not sure who had more fun the guys are the kids.



























Katie loved bouncing!





















Karissa had a great time swinging and falling in the foam pit.

Thanksgiving with everyone!!

We had thanksgiving at Mary and Dennis' house and there was a total of 25 people there. We had some friends from Jamiaca come too. We all had a blast. My sister, her husband and their 4 kids, my dad and his wife and my mom and her husband came too.

On Friday we went shopping and Jason, Chanda and I were there at 5:00 in the morning at Walmart. It was so crazy, but I wouldn't trade the time I had with my sister. I wish she lived closer. I loved having my nieces and nephew here. My niece Hannah was so funny and her personality is so different from Emily and Nathan's. We went out to eat on the last day they were here and after I finished eating the waiter took my plate and she yelled Hey at him then she looked at me and said where'd your food go? She is 2 and full of energy.

Now I'm ready for Christmas!! We are going to put up the tree this coming weekend. Jason's parents got us a train to go around it and the girls are so exctied. They gave me a penguin for the front yard because I love penguins!!! I still need to finish shopping and I am usually done by now, so I'm disappointed with myself.
