Gingerbread House


My first completely homemade gingerbread creation!






December Tidbits 2019


I got to go on Aubrey's field trip to see a Wizard of Oz play at B Street Theater.


Our good friends Katie and Nick treated us for my birthday to a wonderful, delicious dinner out!


The girls always enjoy getting wet when it's raining :).









We love having Christmas decorations up.



And seeing Christmas lights :).


The girls had a cavity free dental appointment, so I decided to take them to Dutch Bros. for the first time.  We drove up, told the lady we had a great dental appointment, and she treated us to a treat for each of the girls!  So sweet! 



Our great neighbors Steve and Terry moved this month.  The girls drew their dogs and I drew our neighboring homes and we transferred them to towels as a going away gift.  We will miss them so much!


My good friend Ashleigh treated me to brunch for my birthday!


My teaching partner gifted us a gift card to the movies and we saw "Frozen 2" together!


We went to see the Nutcracker and even saw some friends there!




Christmas party at the Medinas!


Christmas Eve service.



Cousin time for Christmas!






It was a busy month once again with lots of memories made!

Lucy's Cocoa House and Writers Share

I got the chance to go to Lucy's Writer's Share event at school.  This was a time when she could show us what she has been working on in class with writing and sing some songs they practiced as a class.  I enjoyed listening to her explain "How to Draw a Unicorn" writing piece and the songs they sang.

My teaching partner took the work for day for me so I could go, and I was so grateful.  It's those little moments that are the most special sometimes :).
