End of December/January 2017 Highlights

We've already had a full month of fun to start off 2017. Some of the picture highlights are: Zoolight Safari with Nana and Grandpa (got a few hours of just James and Mama time before the Zoolights started while the little boys napped in the car with Stephen), Bowling and Laser Tag (Joah's first time), Circus Tickets (Christmas Gift for the boys and Jude and Joah's first and last Ringling Brothers Show since this was their last year), James' Upward Basketball, Continued fun in homeschool and 100 day of school celebration, James lost his first tooth, Stephen had an opportunity to preach while our pastor was out, snuggles and Home Alone with Daddy while he was sick with strep again - boo!, made lots of homemade bread with my Aunt Tami's recipe, family (mom, sis, and brother in law) visited and celebrate a late christmas the weekend of a big ice storm, and weekend at Wilderness at the Smokies for the youth Strength to Stand Conference (the boys tagged along and enjoyed the waterpark! I also got to ride the waterslides with all the 7th and 8th grade girls that I teach on Sundays and that was a highlight for me as well). It was a busy month! I included lots of flashback photos of "firsts" with our previous two babies as well! It's fun to reminisce!
