Zoo Light Safari with Cousins

We had a GRAND time at the zoo tonight with cousins. A word to the wise: it is good to go on a day when there have been tornados and flash floods. We practically had the place to ourselves!









What a cute, sweet group of kids! (And, wow----couldn't Owen and Paul pass for twins?!)

Santa...

In their combined 15 years, we have been to see Santa two times. As I watched them having their picture taken today, I was so grateful for the passage of time since the last photo was taken. Notice Paul in his pajamas (now just little boy clothes covered in chocolate and dirt)...he and I had come straight from the "doc in the box" to meet up with Daddy and the other 2 boys.
They might be dirty and a little ragged-looking, but they are healthy, sweet, fun, smart boys---and for that, we are so grateful!!! : )

Making Christmas cookies

We made Christmas cookies today for both Luke's class and our family. The boys enjoyed baking them, icing them, and most of all----eating them!

Caleb lost his first tooth!

Wow! How did this child get old enough to lose a tooth????!!!!

(The problem with his nose is due to a literal nose dive out of the top bunk. Incidentally, that is unrelated to losing his tooth.)
