Caitlin is preparing for her first reconciliation for church. She, Braden, and her friend collected cans and took them to a shelter for her service project. I was super proud of all of them!
Nonie arrived in time for the holidays and the kids were excited. She and C shared a book together.
The kids love the fire pit. They like to roast marshmellows on it. When Uncle Face was here, they had fun blowing the fire and watching what happens. We were forced to take away all the paper from them.
We are very blessed to have a wonderful church that we belong to. It is a beautiful place at this time of year. Which makes things nice considereing we have to arrive almost 2 hours early for the 4:00 Mass.
Singing carols before Mass.
This is C's fourth year of being a Christmas Angel. She is a beautiful one!
Santa sent the kids messages on Christmas Eve.
Throwing out Reindeer food.
Every year there is a wing contest between the Gavin boys. Last year Uncle Face ate 84 wings. Unfortunately, because of when Christmas fell we were unable to go to our usual wing place, which you pay one price and have unlimited wings. So, we made 24 pounds of wings. Uncle Face took care of many of those, we did not count this year.
