A Year in Review--Fourth Quarter

December

brought the annual breaking of ice in the sandbox!

Decorating cookies--always fun. Of course we celebrated Christmas. We started a tradition of 4 family home evenings before Christmas. One: we put up and decorate the tree. This always results in Mike getting frustrated because the lights don't work and too many ornaments on one branch for my tastes.

Two: read and discuss the prophesies of Christ's birth in the Book of Mormon.

Three: Make gingerbread play do and create different symbols of christ.

Four: Christmas Eve: reading of Luke 2, 3 Nephi 1, and singing a few songs.

November

brought our Spencergiving! It also marked the one year anniversary of Veggieman being an Vegetarian. We had a vegetarian lasagna.

Bugaboo loved it!

Big H tried it, said it was good. He really loved the rolls, and fruit salad.

Vegieman, not sure what to think.

October

brought Halloween: Bugaboo was Pinkalicious! She loves seeing the process. She also had a ton of seizures as we went through the process of changing her medications.

Big H was a ninja. Thankfully, Mike got the costumes done way in advance. I don't think I could have done it later on in the month.

Veggieman lost his two front teeth. He turned out to be a very cute Ninja. His favorite part of Halloween was climbing in his cousin's tree and scaring everyone!

Cute Ninjas!
