After being cooped up for many days with cold weather, it was time to venture out so we took a trip to Colonial Williamsburg and the W&M bookstore. Liberty kept looking for those painted hidden rocks without success – maybe next time!

We’ve had a great two weeks off celebrating with family!

Wishing you and yours a happy and healthy new year.

Poppy, Grandma, and Beth came down for a late Christmas celebration and dinner today! The girls were excited to get some ponies, Shopkins, and Colossal Hoot and Canton had a great time playing Clue and flying his drone. It was great seeing everyone!

Merry Christmas to all!

We are very thankful Rhonda is here to celebrate with us. The kids had a great morning!

We were able to FaceTime with Nanny, Poppy Grandma and Beth, Pap, Becky and Ben!

Thanks to everyone who made our year so blessed.

more are coming, on various devices so it will take a bit

Thanks for the special cards with drawings Becky and Ben!

Christmas morning

Liberty’s reaction to Santa bringing an air fryer

Cookies!

Singing!

Lights!

The kids have been making lots of decorations and singing songs.

Liberty went back to the pulmonary doctor and had to be put on prednisone. Hopefully she clears up soon. But she sure loves eating at Red Robin after!

I took Canton and Liberty to see Mary Poppins. It is the first time they’ve been to the movies and the first time I’ve been since before we were married. Liberty said her favorite part of was the popcorn haha. Canton has been signing the songs! It was a great day!

Canton made a life size nutcracker and the girls painted a tree (I’m always a sucker for anything that captures their handprints).

We have maybe 1 inch here. Kids are having a blast!

Ended up with 5 inches.

W&M had a gymnastics meet tonight. Adleigh was amazed at all the athletes’ routines, she kept saying “wow”, “look at that!” But I think they mostly liked moving through all the seats.
