Christmas Memories

Thanking God for another beautiful year together.

So many blessings!

The big surpise this year was a new trampoline!

Ours was beyond repair.

Gifts From Afar

Our Dominic returned to us and surprised each of us with thoughtful gifts 

he collected while traveling around Europe.

He was like Santa presenting gifts from Poland, Austria, Spain, and Greece.

His coin collection was a big hit with everyone.

Christmas Making

Advent is such an excting time for creating.

Grace made this centerpiece at St. Ann's Guild.

This is the centerpiece that Margaret made.

We enjoyed making this puzzle from St. Nick.
Thankfully he left a few winter ones!

We made our favorite sweet treats and shared them with neighbors and family.

Our exciting project this year was a wooden lawn nativity.

We traced a friend's onto some old plywood.

The guys ran the jigsaw.

The girls were the sanding crew.

We were pleasantly surprised to see it come together.

After some white paint, the nativity was ready for stakes and a spotlight.

We gave this set away and unfortunately do not have a picture after it was set up.

It was so pretty.

We will definitely be making more of these next year!
