January was a month of extended Christmas, since we were sick over Christmas and didn’t want to share it. I don’t have pictures from all the gatherings, but here is what I have.
With Maggie’s new bedding.
With their new bedding.
This girl loves her stuffed animals.
Or dinnertime…. pancakes for dinner!
Breakfasttime!
Carolyn strikes again! (What would I do without a 3 year old in the house?)
History homeschool.
Carolyn’s swimming lessons!
Maggie’s swimming lessons.
Anna doing math homework.
The cousins spent the night and started the night with everybody sleeping on the same floor in the girls’ room.
Jordan has been curious lately and interested in watching what we do. Love it!
Brother-in-laws.
Even the little kids love the rope swing and play on it when the big kids go play somewhere else.
We ate a lot.
🙂
Neal got to Skype in with us while we opened his gifts. He is sending us grown-ups to a Broadway show this spring!
“Which ones did you get?”
Uncle Neal sends a great hit with the Tintin books.
She was so excited to get the gift of wings from her aunty!
Butterfly Carolyn!
Here’s Maggie putting on her “Frozen” Anna dress.
Getting handmade Christmas presents from Anna.
Mom getting a photo book for her Christmas present. <3
Cousins getting to watch a movie in their dressup!

She’s a people-loving dog.
Puppy love?
Bee hives coming together!
The fallow garden and the neighbor’s house from my bathroom window.
Anna at swimming lessons!
Brian got some free composted wood chips and we found this bizarre wood thing inside. Took awhile, but we figured out it’s cone from an Atlas Cedar tree…. or this other cedar tree. Wonder if the seeds will grow?
Enjoyed the pictures and seeing how Jordan is doing – I think he and my Sophia are from the same orphanage. We were well Christmas but just had 10 with strep throat and that wasn’t fun. Hope you still had a nice Christmas and good to hear Jordan is getting more curious.
Looks like a great future ahead with all those beautiful children!!!
