Truth be known, I've been so busy that I haven't even thought of it. We've had so much fun and done so much I can't keep up. Let's see...
We had Emma's birthday party, and took a bunch of kids to see Wonder, which was as good a movie as I've seen in a long time and totally melted our hearts. That was the night after Scott's work holiday party - bowling and pool with the company!
Then my parents arrived for a weeks visit - day trips, Legos, games, and shopping! We also had Thanksgiving dinner with all of Scott's family over, which was a classic family Thanksgiving!
Then it was December. The race was on. We had church performances, Christmas shopping, snow, dinners and parties. I made it through everything prior to Christmas itself, before I got sick. This time of year is rampant with viruses and colds. I hit a wall a few days before Christmas weekend and took an entire day in bed to recover enough to get back to things.
Christmas was really wonderful. We had the day at home, just the four of us, building Lego and playing games, after all the gifts were opened up. This year the gifts from Scott and I were joint between the kids. It wasn't really a conscious decision but it was a blessing to see them unwrap together and not fight.
And here we are, on the eve of New Years Eve already. Where did the year go?! Here are a few of the highlights from our year:
