Santa Claus

We made our annual visit to see Santa Claus and was pleasently surprised that there was NO WAIT this year. The kids all had time to visit with Santa and told him what they wanted. There wish lists have gotten much more expensive!! Ashley wants a Kindle Fire, Dylan a laptop and Megan the American Girl Julie doll.

Family Advent Night

Grace Avenue kicked off the Advent season with family Advent night. Megan and Mommy spent the evening making crafts to give to others as gifts.

Trimming the Tree

We spent the afternoon trimming the tree. It is always so special to unwrap the ornaments and reminisce about the meanings behind them. Cherished memories!!

Elf Magic

Our Elves have returned for the Christmas season. The kids wrote their letter to Santa asking for the elves to pay their holiday visit. They layed out crackers and water and sure enough...Miranda, J.D. and Kennedy returned leaving a mess of popcorn and a new movie for the kids.

Thanksgiving

We drove to Stillwater, OK to spend Thanksgiving with Tim, Crystal, Joel, Hayden Grace & Simion Peter. We had a wonderful dinner at their home, toured Stillwater and celebrated Tim's birthday at the bowling alley. Our trip was too short, but well worth the drive!!! We are looking forward to seeing everyone again during the Christmas holidays.
