Random December

Here's the rest of what we were up to in the month of December.
Just me trying to document cute baby toes in their jumpy seat.


Pepper wanted her toes to join the photo shoot as well. Those monkey toes!
I was trying to help the kids get some homework done after dinner. Hazel and Truly were not making it easy.

Movie night with Daddy.




Relief Society Christmas dinner. 

After the RS dinner, I went to a gift-wrapping MNO at Sarah Chuba's house. 
Bekah and I sang two songs with this little group. The two younger boys are one set of missionaries in our ward.
I look like a giant!
"It was a musical kind of night. I love singing songs about my Savior!"
Pepper made a tent out of Truly's jumper-saucer.

Movie time.
"One day she is going to make a great babysitter, but right now she is my biggest helper."
Sunday dresses from past years.



So proud of her outfit.




"Someone has the Farah Fawcett bang feathered-flip down pat!"
"This girl banged her head on the playground, repeatedly threw up, and earned herself a CT scan. Luckily, all seems well except she has a sinus infection. Sigh." Poor, poor Pepper. I had to pick her up from school after she threw up in her classroom, after hitting her head on the playground. She came home and fell asleep and was acting a bit weird. I was worried about her but luckily her pediatrician saw her right away and she was able to go across the hall and get a CT scan. The scan showed no concussion but she did have a sinus infection. By the end of the day she was just fine. Thank, goodness!

Big box of presents from Gramma G.




Photo shoots are hard work.
"Gramma doesn't mess around when it comes to sending Christmas cheer. Holy box of goodies!!!"
"Performed one of my favorite Christmas songs tonight. I spent too many years letting my own fears keep me from doing something I love. Not anymore. I love the magic of Christmas music." 


Had Evan and Connor over one morning.
"Spending our morning with friends over. Kids are having a blast. I'm tired."

Christmas pics from Kim's house.
The cousin gift we sent Joshua.
Pepper picked this rubber-band gun out for Ben.
Morgan's gift to Jacob. 
An old photo of Hazel I found on my phone. This girl's been making funny faces for a while.
The kids had earned some gift certificates to a restaurant for doing well at school. They expired on New Year's Eve, so we decided to use them as our NYE family celebration.



"What happens when we try to document our NYE family dinner out and about. Sigh."
"At least the other side of the table did well. Happy New Year to all!"
Now, on to January!
