Mid-December 2019
It’s been a fun week or so around here and not too stressful, we’re trying to keep holiday stuff reasonable so we don’t all get exhausted and burnt out. Kids would love us to go crazy with decorations and activities but we do better keeping it moderate. They sure love their elf “Mumpho Elphie.”
Some highlights:
We made cookies for the firemen and they gave us a great tour!
Luke has been promoted to the 8-12-year-old class in Jui Jitsu and is already doing great. Love how committed he is and how much natural talent he has
I read somewhere that it is a measure of your OCD (which I definitely have a touch of) how hands off you can be with gingerbread house decorating and I took that as a challenge and let the kids do their own gingerbread house 100%. They had a blast (it got hit with a blizzard at the end according to Luke lol). Next year I’d love to make our own gingerbread houses and each have our own… #holidaygoals
Love having Kona and his brother as our neighbors…they are awesome boys…
The last pic is my garden on the solstice…it’s mostly in the shade right now so in a fairly dormant period but still not bad for December 21…
Happy Sunday!
