Random Highlights from December

Family Newsletter/ Christmas Card

We decided this year to give our neighbor 12 days of Christ's names.  Each day we'd attach one of the names of Christ to a little treat, and deliver it to his house. Under different circumstances, we'd make it a secret drop-off-and-run type of thing, but we knew that our neighbor has security cameras and it would be pointless. Plus it's good to say hi face-to-face now and then.


Mandy shared a good sugar cookie recipe online with us, which was awesome because we like to bake around Christmas time!  Too bad I don't have a picture of the cookies.


My mom invited me to be her date to her work's Christmas party.  They served us a delicious steak dinner grilled up by the owner of the hotel, and we played some silly games.




Steve needed an excuse to use his new camera lens, so both Lily and I got some photos taken.





Here's another random yet important-to-document picture taken at April's house when we visited her for Christmas break and she made us her amazing, wonderful, super delicious baked salmon. 


Earlier in the month we got to see some of my dad's gingerbread house come together.  Amara even helped design the horse stencil for the carousel.  Here's the finished product, based on Toy Story 3.  The carousel even spun around because it was on an electric turntable.  


These last few photos are of me with our puppy, Pippin.  He's so adorable and he loves me lots.
