November News

We got some cozy matching family pajamas to kick off the holiday season! 

I am so thankful for these three. I love seeing how they joyfully experience life together. Last night we showed them the movie The Swiss Family Robinson for the first time. They loved all of the animals and adventures! It was fun to see them jumping up and down during all of the excitement.

Asa and his first Luica got to hold some cockroaches during science class at Co-op.

Greta has learned to write her name! She is so proud.

 It is sweet when Eli reads to Asa and Greta. He is a great big brother. 

We recorded Eli's birthday interview video, we will share the video soon! I love my sweet eight year old.

A few weeks ago my dear friend Angie took me out for lunch. Her mother went home to heaven 14 years ago. It was helpful to talk with someone who understands. God has put so many people in my life to encourage me. I am so thankful. Angie and I have been friends since I was 16!

Eli was proud to complete the Lego car that Aunt Kristi gave to him for his birthday!

Library time!

Sunday evening reading time with Papa.

Last week we took a family field trip to the Children's Museum. The kids loved exploring and painting.

A few weeks ago Brian set up a saltwater aquarium with the kids. The kids enjoy learning about the sea creatures and taking care of them.

I dropped Asa off for his first playdate with his friend Micah. They had a great time together.

The kids had art time with Dad and made Thanksgiving turkeys!

Last Friday we went to the Tamarack Nature Center to learn all about birds. The kids liked using the binoculars on our bird hike.

On Sunday we made cinnamon ornaments for our Christmas tree. I love the smell of cinnamon.
