Beauty and the Beast

This is just about my favorite weekend of the year.  seeing my children, this year, all 4 of them participating in the Sunday School pageant.
The rehearsals were flawless and the performance, of my angel, shepherd, narrator and lamb were precious.















Then it was on to the nutcracker.  it has been a tradition in our family for years to attend the nutcracker, never have one of ours been in it. What a delight!

Our mouse-ling took the stage so bravely and danced like no one was watching.  what an amazing gift.  Memories i will forever treasure and hold dear.


Merry Christmas!

Let Heaven and Nature Sing










Our Holidays have begun!  The first Saturday in December we spend the day with friends.  







We open a few gifts, bake some cookies and enjoy the gift of friendship

















My Lily played her violin and my Ava sang to her hearts content... "Jingle Bells."















What JOY this season brings....


We are so grateful for the Savior.
