Adventures in Costco. The price of this teddy was $200.00.
Eli and Finn got a good snuggle in, seeing as they weren't
going to be taking him home.
December is a busy month for us here in the valley. The whole
Gleanings base participates in different out reaches in the community,
and it's always a party! We had speakers blasting through
the whole trailer park, and got to pray for lots of peeps :)
The infamous while elephant gift exchange. 60 people playing!
Eli wears out his shoes every 2 weeks playing so much
street hockey. Can't beat the exercise he gets though!
Jen is admiring the painting that our friend Chris is
painting for the Gleanings dining hall. She'll be here for
3 months, and will be painting up the whole place!! wow
This was a big project recently. We built a huge cement pad for the kids to play all their sports on,
instead of playing on the one road that has all the gleanings traffic. All the kids are so pumped.
A family with 12 kids lives full time in this trailer. 6 years actually. And people thought we were crazy!
Installing a new well pump and wiring, it was 500 feet long.
Both Eli and Finn were in the Christmas play this year, and had the best experience doing it.
Lots of lines to memorize, and a lot of hours of rehersal. Totally worth it.

Finny loves finding random American goodies. Gosh he's cute :)
We baked sugar and gingerbread cookies this year, and we all decorated together. This was the final
product. Love doing these kind of things with them, while they still like doing things with me. ;)
