quick re-cap

I am waaaay behind in my blogging, so here is a picture re-cap of Christmas...

Our church production of "Jingle Jam" was amazing. Things looked scary at our last dress rehearsal, but all I have to say is, God showed up! It was incredible, and families were ministered to and challenged to step up in the spiritual leadership of their children.

The day after "Jingle Jam" we drove to Minnesota for Christmas. We had a wonderful time with my family, including my parents, Jason, Megan, and Levi, and Daron, Tari, Ella, and Abby.
The whole gang...

Just had to put this picture in, too, to show off Abby's first pigtails, courtesy of Aunt Laura

While we were there, we went to the American Girl store in the Mall of America. Maddie had saved money for over a year, and was shocked to learn she had enough to buy a doll!
