Some Much Needed Outside Fun!!

Just some pictures today. We played outside for a while this evening. 

Even though it was kinda chilly, we had a good time and burned some energy.

 All the kids were out early! We should definitely do this more often ;).

The Children's Christmas Program at Church

The kid's Christmas program was so much fun to watch! From year to year it amazes me how much the kids in out church grow and change. It hit me this year that one of the older kids played baby Jesus one year! Man how time flies!!

Jennifer was an angel
