Happy Christmas!



Happy Birthday Jared!

Jared turned seven. We celebrated his birthday by going to the planetarium earlier in the week and then on his birthday we went to a placed called Jumping Jacks, where the kids jump on all these blow ups in a warehouse. We had Jared's favorite dinner, Hawaiian Haystacks and played the new wii game he got for his birthday. By far his favorite gift was a snuggie he got from his Grandma Barnum




Chaz's Winter Choir Concert

It was really good!













Christmas Plans


We are all ready for Christmas and are settled in for a Christmas Eve at home. Seeing lights, making candy, delivering our secret santas and playing the wii are all on the agenda. We also always read the Christmas story from the Bible as a family.

We hope you all have a very Happy Christmas. And hope you each have a quiet moment when you can remember the One who came to save us from death and sin, who gave up his throne next to God the Father and came down as a baby in a stable, who lived a perfect life and set the example for all of us. We thank him by remembering him and following him, not just at Christmas time but all year.
