Week 49 Family Report

6 December - 12 December, 2010

Monday - Since it was the first Monday in December we carried out our tradition of making gingerbread houses.  This is our fourth year doing this -  you can see our houses from 2008 and 2009.

Tuesday - Orthodontist appointment for Camille.  Grocery shopping.  Piano lessons.  Choir.  BED!!!  (no photos from today!!!!)

Wednesday - Oh, how we love to be home especially after our busy Tuesdays.   Just a few photos of our time at home . . .

Grace reading in bed.



Laundry.



Fresh ground wheat for making bread!



Dinner preparations!


Thursday - The room off of our living room is basically like a three season porch!  It has so many windows and doors that it is very cold in there.  Normally we have our computer in this room but as you can see from this picture we moved the computer into the living room and closed off the room with a large white sheet.  Not beautiful but the house feels so much warmer now! 



Friday - We watched a short movie of the story "Gift of the Magi" -  a family favorite.

Saturday - The girls and I attended a puppet show with some girls from church followed by a quiet afternoon at home and a church Christmas dinner that night.

In front of the Puppet Studio.

The girls got to make a puppet of their own after the performance.

Christmas dinner at church.



Sunday - Church.  Snow.  Dinner with our hometeachers - they brought it - a good deal for us! 



Have a great week!

The gingerbread houses get better every year! Love the logs up against Gabe's! How do you remember to take so many photos throughout the week! You are so good about that! My kids will have huge gaps in their childhood photos at this rate!!! :(
