Christmas Week

We had a fun few days together in anticipation of Christmas. We went bowling, had a visit with Mimi & Enno, made cookies with Aunt Nell & Ezra James and Mimi, went Ice Skating, looked at Christmas lights, watched Christmas movies & played lots of games. All before Santa arrived.

Christmas Around the World

We made it to Addison's school play last night, Christmas Around the World. She was Cupid, one of Santa's reindeer. She did such a great job! I was really impressed with all of the lines she had to memorize & and the amount of songs they sang.

This is Rudolph below. She really wanted this part, but I think she was placed in the right role.

What a Turkey!

As promised, a few pictures of my favorite Turkey!


(You'll notice that he shed his head back at the golf cart).

A few updates...

I'm a little behind on the house progress. Two weeks ago, E dug out the trenches for the electric, water, and sewer lines down the hill. Roberto also came back to help complete the metal work on the patio.

It was a beautiful weekend which allowed us to get a few things done outside. We put the roof panels on the patio, filled in the gaps with foam insulation in the windows, and put up siding on the exterior in preparation for rock. With the wind chill at 18 degrees today, E worked inside on the sheetrock.
