Christmas 2014

The Christmas season is in full swing in our home and the traditions continued this week beginning with our gingerbread houses....
 our sweet neighbors joined in on the fun....
 we had a boy house turned drizzle castle....
 and a little one who was busy taking candy from the decorating supplies....
 I love the differences between boys and girls....our boys were all about decorating the house as a whole while the girls were busy assigning specific walls on the house that each girl was responsible for placing the candied goodies on....
 a friend gave the girls some goodies this week....Maddox is all about some good dress-up attire!
 Even during schooltime, the dress-up fun isn't left out....
The girls have been practicing their Nutcracker dance routines and we were given the opportunity to watch in the classes....Maddox tends to get a bit shy in these situations.... 
 but our MK was in full shine mode!
 She was so proud to show us her candy cane dance....

 even after an afternoon of visiting the orthodontist and getting her palate expander positioned in, she was still smiling!
 Friday evening our family volunteered during a Steven Curtis Chapman concert....we received a grant for Maryn's adoption through his organization, Show Hope.  We were thrilled to have an opportunity to assist in making more people aware of the children who wait to come home forever.
In addition to SCC, we danced the night away to Brandon Heath and Third Day.  Maddox said, "Mom, this is the best rock concert ever!"
