Wrapping up Christmas...

Wrapping up? Or un-wrapping? Either one, we had two more Christmas visits....First one was at our house with Laura, Bill, Connor, Mawna, Pap, and Aunt Sandy.


Please convince these people to find out if they are having a boy or girl. ;)

Aunt Sandy was given baby Hannah to feed - look at her juggling that cup and everything!


Connor opened some gifts....


Chloe and April opened some gifts....


Chloe had asked Santa for a baby doll stroller.  While opening her stocking the day before, she made a comment of "this isn't what I asked for"......Well, Mawna told Chloe that she had received a message from someone about a particular gift....She opened it....and, ran over to both my mom and dad with giant hugs of gratitude.  Santa and Mawna are friends ;)


We hung out for the rest of the day, had a spaghetti dinner, and then this happened.  It might have been the highlight of the day for April.  She came back in after walking Cinnamon and said, "I had a great time". :)


While Connor and April were jumping on the trampoline downstairs (which Chloe had already delcaired "not very princess-y") Chloe got to "do" science with Uncle Bill.  We mixed chemicals until we had a solution that made a clear glass ornament turn silver! :)


The next morning, we went to visit Mommom Ritter and exchange gifts.  The girls got new baby dolls!





The next day, Sunday, it rained while we were leaving for church.  So some girls got to use their umbrellas! :)

A dear friend

I'm leading the study tomorrow at my Bible Study. We're reading a book called Crazy Love by Francis Chan and the chapter I'm in 'charge of' of real life examples of people who are living completely for Christ. I've come up with an example from my own life to talk about and I thought I'd let my blog readers in on what I'm going to share tomorrow. Enjoy! I met Mrs. Hohman on a hot July afternoon after mistakenly knocking on her neighbor’s door. I stood on her front porch with my mom, nervously waiting to meet the woman I planned on living with for my first year at Grove City . I felt like I was towering over her short frame as she showed me the 3 rd floor and barked the rules of “no swearing, no smoking, no boys”. I handed over my rent check and moved to her house in late August. September came and a fellow freshman had a mental breakdown and her bed was now available to me…… So, after 3 weeks of living with Mrs. Hohman I moved out....

More Bloopers

These pictures just make me laugh ~ especially the last two. I have a feeling that Aunt Laura, in particular, will think those last two are funny also. :)
