a few more Decemember moments...

We discovered Waffle Crush and what a wonderful discovery it was!
It was part of our advent activities and it will be a repeat :) 
 
Another advent activity was to put a list together of all the titles or words we use to refer to Jesus Christ.  Then we each chose one and used our Sunday down time to study up on it.  We came together at the end of the day and shared what we had learned.
It was a wonderful way to end our last Sunday of December. 

Brent's Priest Quorum got together to finish up the 12 days of Christmas for a couple of their buddies.
I love to see these young men taking care of one another. 
 
Tiger boy and Wolf boy bring a lot of personality to the group!
 
Our celebration with the Slade family is always a favorite tradition!
Megan and Luis added little man Slade to the lineup of darling babies and he's just too much!
Cooper is so good with the tiny ones.  Here are the cuties reading about visions of sugarplums or maybe it was trucks.

And Kristi added baby Emerson. A sweet little angel with curls like her brother :)  One of the best parts of having Kristi and Megan in my life is that although we believe differently in some matters it never interferes with our love for each other.  I honestly laugh with these girls so much it hurts!

 

Goodness.  No words to describe how much I love this family.
Dave and Maggie are truly some of my most favorite people.
When Maggie hugs me and kisses my cheek, I'm pretty darn sure my mom's love is wrapped around me too.  It's sweet, safe and comfortable. Perfect.

Finishing out the break on a bike ride with my boys.
Although I often wish for snow during Christmas,
it's gorgeous days like this one that make it absolutely okay that there's not.
