Christmas Cookies with Cousins

Heather and I were brave and let the 6 kids decorate sugar cookies.  There was a huge mess, but the kids had a blast.

House Update

All my parents grandchildren

 Everett, Matthew, Ava, Emma, Ben, Kristen, Della

We were trying for a picture for our Christmas card, but the sun was too bright.

Okay trying to get all the grandkids to look at the camera at the same time is near to impossible.  We did the best we could.  This is the first time in many years that the whole family was together in the same place at the same time.  It was a very special day.

We are starting to see some progress on our house.  Within two days the house was framed.  Today they planned on putting the roof on, so hoping to get some pictures later this afternoon of that.  Its very exciting to see it coming along.
