The Nutcracker

It came and went (as in at Christmas time), but we had so much fun.  We pulled out our umbrellas and dressy clothes and went to the Ballet and dinner.  So sweet. So fun. So memorable. 

Katie and O-thanks for taking us out to the performance and dinner!

Katie and Owen you were so excited to come up with a way to love on our neighbors this fall...take them monster cookies!  You skipped door to door and enjoyed every. single. minute. 

Good job, kiddos...We love that you love people!

Friday Night Football

Friday night football is great. Honestly, that is one thing that will be fun when the kids make it to high school. :) And if we were in Lawrence we wouldn't miss one of Uncle Drews games! It's his senior year! We check the ljworld every saturday morning to see what happened in the game. We are with the Lawrence Lions in spirit! 

It's also fun to hear the announcer as we miss hearing my dad call the game from the booth up top. He's been the announcer in Eudora since we were in school-that's a long time!!

One last thing-Owen was listening to the star spangled banner. We asked him to put his hand over his heart or where his pocket is on his shirt. He quickly put his hand in his shorts pockets. Then after we helped him put it over his heart, he put it in his shirt pocket. Finally he placed his hand correctly! So sweet. :)

Friday night. Fort night. Fun pizza night.

Justin and I have been praying about how to make regular nights special. Boy, is it hard to be creative! We have both been trying to think of things that we as kids enjoyed doing. One such thing-forts! Here is our Friday night fort. The kids loved it!

And if you try this at home remember that if a fort falls over, never try to put it back together-always start over! One other note-dads build really good forts!

We ordered Pizza from one of our favorite spots-Zpizza and ate under the tent with a flashlight.

Owen eating the flashlight, though he chowed down on the pizza too!

Yum!!

Any other recommendations of fun family activities?? Pass them along, please!
