Finishing out 2009

Sledding on the roads of Marrcrest


Savannah is 9

Birthday breakfast - Cinnamon rolls.


The night before Savannah's birthday, we had a plumbing problem. Chris, our wonderful plumber, spent two days trying to unclog our sewage back up (Gross I know). Yes, those are tree roots that had grown into the pipes causing the problem. We just felt blessed that we didn't have to get a back hoe involved (that was the next option).
Anyhow, with our house out of commission we moved the party to my parent's house. The kids had a great time with a pinata, pizza, cake and movie.

Christmas Concerts
Savannah's Christmas Choir Concert - I couldn't get her video to upload, but she looked tired.


Jonah's class did Christmas caroling and a play- The Gingerbread Man. (I am hoping to get a copy from someone - He was the fox:))

Jacob and "best buddy" Fynn. But he really misses his cousins Maddy and Taylor in Oregon. Jacob's class caroled to Great Grandpa's retirement home (hoping to get video of this too).

*We forgot our camera when we went to Nana and Papas for Christmas Brunch, but had a fun time hanging out with everyone.


Julie and Beck

After Christmas celebration with Julie and Beck. Beck isn't feeling so well, as he is getting older. It was nice of Julie to bring him up for the kids to play with.
Gathering with the Gals
It has been a long time since I had gotten together with my high school friends. Katie was so great to invite us all to her beautiful home to catch up. So much fun! So many laughs!
