Winter evening merriment!

Daddy and the Princess, dancing! 

 

 The Knight, the Princess and the...monkey!!!  

Wild times at the Japanese Steak House!!

We absolutely love our property manager and are so grateful for his service to us over the years. So for Christmas we gave him and his wife a gift certificate to the JSH! They decided they wanted us to join them, and it was such a treat!!

 Our kids haven't been to one of these places since they were tiny and don't remember, so it was extra fun.

 I must say, this particular one was very WV WILD!! 

Sake shooting was the event of the evening! 

We love Mr. Fred!!!

Girls day shopping trip!

I love having my sweet girlie along with me on my monthly monster shopping trips! 

 The kids favorite stop is always the Vang's home where we pick up our farm food!! 

 Sometimes, Mrs. Vang has special treats.  Ooooh, today was our lucky day! 

 Lil Missy was so sweet to do the gate for us :) 

 Ornaments from the Vangs for everyone: 

... And "booshies" before bed!! 

Ski Trip FUN!!!

Daddy took Joshua on a SUPER exciting boys ski trip!!! 

 Getting ready to head out...eaaaarly!

 He did great and they had SO MUCH FUN!!! 

The Wingfeather Saga...in LEGOS!

These guys are SO CREATIVE!!!  

We just finished the most incredible book series called The Wingfeather Saga, and our kiddos promptly created an entire Lego world of the book and set it to music.  

Awesomeness.

Here is Joshua, practicing the BOOMING "soundtrack":

 The "black carriage":

 The dark sea of darkness...

 Their details are incredible!  

 The soundtrack turned into serious business before the show...

 Daddy is helping with the recording!  

 THE performance!!!

It was quite a performance!!  We're so proud of their creativity!
