Christmas time.

                                             Christmas dinner

                                            Finn was a soldier in the play

                                            Eli was the angel

                                            Magnuss just riding the donkey.

                                            Present time.

                                             Our christmas tree.

                                Christmas morning.

                                            Eli helping get dinner ready.

                                Smile, act natural.....

                                Chickens in our back yard.

                                              Double rainbow, what does it mean?

                                Rosie picking a orange fresh off the tree.

                                Finn doing a front flip off the couch.

                                "The swaddler" always ready to snuggle.

December

                           We got the privelege of having a girl named Delaney come every
                            morning, Monday to Friday to hang out with the boys while we
                           were in class. She was always up to something cool and crafty.
                               She made them super hero paper puppets!!! A hit!!!!!

                                             Black friday at Walmart. I don't recommend this.

                                              Kent's varsity game... such a thrill

                                High School football game... the cheer leaders amazing!

                                Some lady locked her keys in her Jeep, she paid Finn $1 to
                                climb through the ragtop to unlock the door. Pretty excited
                                   to tell the story.

                                       Someone random had this action figure in their toy
                                          collection. We thought it was picture worthy.

                                            Another church service at the wharehouse. We're
                                             now feeding 250 people. So awesome!!

                                   No big deal... It's just Dec 20, and it's 20 degrees.

                                 This is a typical morning with Delaney. She is a saint. She was cool
                                 teaching the kids like this every day. I love her and will miss her.

                                     Finn's latest lego creation.

                                  There is a trailer park just a mile sown the road, and we brought
                                   Christmas hampers and sang carol's. It was so much fun, and
                                     such a blessing to bring gifts to those who go without.

                              Eli's "meat cleaver of kindness"... I know, I said the same thing.
                           It doesn't look very kind to me. All the kids at Gleanings are in a Bible
                          Sword club, and they memorize scripture to earn points for different
                            swords. Eli loved the blood stains on this one, ew.

out reach prep

                                      Labeling and packaging dried fruit for Israel. This container
                                       is scheduled to arrive a week before us, and we'll
                                            get the honor of blessing hundreds of people with
                                          food, and the best thing going; Jesus!!
                                      

                                             Praying for a truck taking food to Cuba... do you
                                                see Batman?                            

Leaving on an outreach to the tenderlion district in San Fran. 

 

 

 

                                 This was a very special day for our team... we got to load and
                                   pray for the travel of the container of food we are meeting
                                       in Israel and distributing to different communities.

Oh snap!

                                             Eli did a back drop on the trampoline and
                                              landed on his neck.  In to the hospital.  X-
                                             Rays showed up good.  He ended up spraineing
                                             a huge muscle in his neck.

                                            Not too happy

                                We watched AFV to cheer up.  I may have to watch it again later
                                 when I get the bill.
