Christmas with Grandma Cretia

A week ago Sunday, we spent the day in Wichita. We had lunch and an early Christmas with Grandma Cretia, Marie and Braden.

Best buds.

Giving her sandhill plum jelly.

Amelia drew her a picture of Elsa from Frozen.

Cookie party

For the second year Amanda and Kate hosted a cookie exchange party. Because the roads were muddy, we had it at the arts center. It was fun. Ashley won prettiest display and I won best tasting.

Paper quilt

This year at school art class for our collaborative project we did a paper quilt. Each student made a 9 inch square that I "quilted" together to make a 9 by 15 foot quilt. It was alot of work and many evenings at home for me putting it together but I think it turned out pretty great.

This girl

She is having fun dressing herself these days. This is one of her outfit creations.

Girls day to Hays

A few weeks ago Ashley and I had a much needed day away to Hays for massages, food and beer. Rock Haven is one of my favorite Kansas places and so is Gellas for that matter.

Thanksgiving family fun

First Snow

Last night we got the first snow of the season. The kids ran into our bedroom around 7:15 shouting "it snowed, it snowed!" They couldn't wait to go out and play in it. So, instead of going out to play in it at 7am, we watched Frozen instead. Amelia said God and Elsa made the snow.
