This past Sunday night was our Sunday School Christmas program. Caleb and Micah were "Kings", and Joshua was a "Shephard". They did a great job remembering their lines, and also singing their songs!!

This past Saturday night, my best friend from church - Michelle and I, had a Christmas Party. It was suppose to be held at our house, but since our whole family ended up with the flu earlier in the week, we were blessed to have another good friend - Andrea - offer to open up her house, so we could still go ahead with the party. We ended up with 23 women who came out. It was such a wonderful time of fun, food, and fellowship! We're already making plans for next year!! Lord willing, we won't get the flu!!!

This past Sunday we had our annual "Caroling" at church. We had close to 50 people that came out in the afternoon. Afterwards, we invited everyone back to our house for sloppy joes. Well, we ended up with 42 people that came back for food and fellowship. Your probably wondering how we fit everyone in here - let's just say that we were all nice and "cozy". It turned out to be a great time with everyone, and we are planning on extending the invitation next year too!!

We have had 2 good-size snow storms within the last week. We probably have over a foot of snow between the 2 of them - well, last Tuesday, we got dumped on again. Brad went out around 10:30 p.m. to snow blow the driveway, and look who got up to go help Daddy?!! Joshua is our "big" helper. He loves to help with anything!! When Daddy and him were all done with the snow shoveling, they came in and warmed their "tummy's" with some hot chocolate that Mommy had waiting for them.

We took our family pictures in front of the church again this year, and this is one of the one's that turned out really cute, of the boys'. You will all probably be seeing this again in our christmas card.
