This past week has been busy with different Christmas activites. Here's a look at a few of them....
Andy's had the opportunity to share at 3 different schools during this Christmas season. It's a great opportunity to share the reason that we celebrate Christmas....Christ came!
We had our Mission Christmas party last Sunday. This is how Joey and Ike entertained themselves while we chatted. This mat is what we like to refer to as "Taipei". In other words, LOTS of cars!!!
Ellie spent as much time as she could with Miss H
This pic is for Grandpa Kenny. Ike surprised us all (but especially me) by eating the C's fruit soup. I think he thought it was chocolate when he took it, but he ended up having 2 bowls of the stuff!!
Just to show that we really do have Scandinavian pride, M and I also tried the fruit soup. Brought back lots of memories of Grandma Bestemor!
We spent Christmas Eve down south with our friends and went to this great science museum!
There were lots of fun things for the kids
...and the adults!
Yep, Joey is without pants in this picture. He had to pull his "gag and puke" act at dinner so we had to quickly wash them before we headed home.
Christmas morning!!!
Puzzles from Santa
This boy was up at 6:45am and dug into his stocking and Joey's (who was still sleeping). Guess he was excited!
We ended Christmas Day with a program at the kid's school. I was pretty impressed with the program this year...lots of Christmas songs, a magician, and some traditional Chinese music.
It was Elle's first Christmas program and (surprise, surprise) she wasn't shy at all.
They're here!!!
Celebrating Christmas with Grandma and Grandpa
Trying on his new pj's (over his clothes, of course)
Husbands waiting bench (or at least it is according to Dad)
Ike and Elle were at school, so Joe got lots of attention from K and A
Check out these newly acquired skills!
And these!
Andy pestering the girls!
Grandpa time
Some of Elle's new Christmas presents....She loves the Ariel necklace! That's Peppermint Hot Chocolate on her face (just in case you are wondering).
This is for Grandma Barbara, Uncle Mark, and Uncle Tom.... all the family with Math degrees...Elle's getting a head start
