Farewell 2016

I'm learning the blogging is a bit like my weekly BSF lesson.  It's more fun done in small, regular intervals instead of major catch up sessions.  Anyway, I'm almost caught up.  Last blog post of 2016!

The kids woke up to this on Christmas morning...don't look too closely at our sad tree.  I let the kids fully decorate it, and I didn't change one thing.  I obviously set this up the night before, and Jon said that these three snowmen startled him in the dark when he was doing his last walk through the house prior to coming to bed.  Perhaps it was those scary carrot noses.  Boo!

If you want to get Scott talking, ask him about his drone.  LOVES IT!  With all of the basement practice, he'll be a pro when he takes it to the yard this spring!

 Sleepover Silliness!

  Countdown to midnight (a.k.a 8:00 p.m.) about to begin...

As 2016 comes to a close, we can all say that we've been continually blessed by God's graciousness and abundant provision.  We look forward to seeing what the coming year holds.   I crawled into Natalie's bed the other night to read with her.  I usually sit on the side of her bed, but this time I was cold and actually got under her covers.  She got wide eyes and said, "Can my bed hold this much?"  So, perhaps the New Year will hold resolutions to diet and exercise.  We'll see...regardless, Happy New Year to all!
