Christmas 2018




 our sweet friend Sara Jean sewed these matching aprons for us! 

 Christmas shopping helpers 
 friends over for dinner
 putting together fun new legos! 


 trying to get a shot of the tree! 

 decorating the tree
good little helpers! 






















 Riding on Daddy was the most favorite way to hang ornaments up high! 

 Evie Joy choose some fun hand print ornaments for the littles to do
 We made and ate a lot of hams

 Evie Joy and the littles made some fun stick ornaments! 



 This year we did something called Truth in the Tinsel.  Each day for 24 days we had an Advent Bible story and simple craft.  Each kid had their own tree on a door or wall to decorate.  





 decorating Snowman cookies with friends! 







 Evie Joy & Josiah made a few hundred cookies, decorated them and handed them out as gifts!


 Cindy Grace was a cute little helper! 





 Decorating Cookies (And Eating them) with Friends 



 Love Evie Joy's Tree on our front door- she did a great job! 








 Above, bead cross ornaments were a fan favorite
And below, singing carols 
 Acting out Christmas play

 Instead of wrapping a bunch of little gifts, each little kid got a box, part of the snowman. 


 opening gifts



 EJ made Daddy a tie, ha

 Evie Joy made the littles their own build a bears- they put the stuffing in, it was so cute- Ninja Bear, Beauty Babe and Cutie Pie
 Judah loved taking the countdown to Christmas chain down each day.  We read a story from the Jesus Storybook Bible, drew a picture for each story and each kid made a little story picture book

 EJ at some Christmas School party 
At this party, they each received a snow globe.  
The snow globes didn't last very long, as you can see below! 





















 They did a great job telling the Christmas story in Chinese! 












 Christmas fun with our friend Sophia!

Yay for a very Merry Christmas!
