O Christmas Tree!

 So much fun to get into the Christmas spirit!  This year Mom was the only one to break an ornament!!

Lefse

What a fun Norwegian treat!  We all got our hands dirty and made some lefse with the Ensign family.  What a treat to be a part of their family tradition.  Plus....everyone LOVED the lefse!  Maybe it had something to do with the butter and cinnamon sugar you put on it!  :)

 Our flipper!

Love all the flour on her shirt!  Such concentration....love.  

Love our Auntie Nancy!!

Happy Thanksgiving

This year we headed up to the cabin to celebrate Thanksgiving as a family.  There was a dusting of snow at the cabin....and the kids took full advantage of it!  Fun to have family time without all the normal activities we are running to and from when at home.  It was good to play the game Sorry and Candyland, color, eat yummy food, play by the river, and just relax.  Ahhhh.  :)

Gorgeous view from the cabin!

Blessed beyond measure with these kiddos!

 Zooming down the hill!

Hot Cocoa and whipped cream!  Blessed.

 Handsome.

Thanksgiving Feast

Brooke and I got to hang out this morning - - just the two of us-- at her LHP Thanksgiving Feast.  Fun morning of singing and eating!

 Our sweet little Native American!

Crossfire soccer

Jaelyn LOVES soccer!

Jaelyn is fast, aggressive and is always where the action is.  It's a joy to watch her play and smile on the field.

Jaelyn taking a corner kick.  In this game she scored 2 goals - her team won 2-0.  :)

The best seat in the house!

Thunderbolt's Season

Ben had a great soccer season - they were 8-1 this year (although we weren't supposed to keep score!). I'm not sure who had more fun...the kids or the parents!  The parents turned Monday night practices into margarita Monday's!

Love the smile...having fun!

 Brooke & Harlow - always on the sideline for their bro's games.
