Our Christmas Day

Savannah, enjoying her candy necklace... who wouldn't

Aaron took the children for the whole afternoon one day and went to a pottery place and made this mug for me! Avery and Savannah's hand prints are on the mug. VERY sweet!

Savannah's new shopping cart. You could sort of say we are into anything related to caring for, feeding, and shopping for... babies!

Avery got a car garage, which Aaron built for him the weekend before Christmas. Miss Jesse and Uncle Kevin were over that weekend, and we all enjoyed playing with it before we put it up, JUST in time for Avery to come walking in from his nap... whew!

Mom-Mom's Vistit

Mom-Mom and Dahnielle came over to drop off the children's gifts and make some fudge!! YUMMY!

My sister and Avery enjoying the "winter" weather

Avery and Savannah LOVE to cook, anything!

Thank you Mom-Mom for coming over and making us scrumptious Christmas candy!

Thanksgiving Weekend

So this is how we started out Thanksgiving weekend, with this beautiful sunset Wednesday night!

Avery buttering his own roll! WOW! That's a lot of butter!

Savannah woke up just in time to get a family picture taken!

Serving up the homemade pumpkin pie, with homemade whipped cream! YUMMY!

Savannah and her Aunt Allison!

Switching gears now, we turn to Uncle Jon's birthday, ON Thanksgiving. (a lot of the Frost family is born around holidays!)

Relaxing and enjoying a book with Papa

We decorated Christmas ornaments after Uncle Jon's birthday.

We glued buttons to Popsicle sticks shaped like Astrix, and swirled paint in clear glass balls. It was a lot of fun watching what the ornaments would turn out like. My Niece Eden put almost every color in one. We thought it would swirl into a mud colored ball, instead it turned out to be our favorite!

We went golfing the next day, thanks to Grandma for watching the children. I got to play golf for the first time in 4 years! I stunk it up the first 3-4 holes, thankfully I got my rhythm soon after!

All of us learned a few things from Aaron that day. Papa learned he should just stick with his irons.

First Fishing Trip!

Avery's first Fishing trip with Daddy and Mister Jonathan! Avery was so excited, whenever a fish was caught he would say "YES SIR, YES SIR"!!

Miss Erin joined the fishing fun and caught a lizard fish. GROSS!

As the fish were getting thrown back into the water, Avery told them to "have a good weekend"!

Sweet Treats

I am making these for Savannah, for Christmas. I plan to make cake rolls, possibly some sandwich cookies, and I am also in the process of painting a 'tea' table for her. LOTS of crafting before Christmas. That is all we are getting her though, and might I say it is very cheap!

Restful Sunday

Sunday is such a wonderful gift from God to depart from our usual and rest! We have struggled with Sundays in the past, and we have come to a point in our lives where we literally take the Lord's day as RESTFUL. Mowing, gardening, any laborous work is put off, granted sometimes with a reluctant heart, but never the less we have come to rest on Sundays. In my working hands I feel a stirring to 'get going on something', but when I withhold my selfish desire until Monday. I am almost so eager to work that I am joyful in my work and projects! Praise God for his Holy plan for his people!

"For six days, work is to be done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath or rest, holy to the Lord." Exodus 31:15a NIV

Thirsty Thursdays

"Consider what God has done; Who can straighten what he has made crooked? When times are good, be happy; but when times are bad, consider: God has made the one as well as the other. Therefore, a man cannot discover anything about his future. In this meaningless life of mine I have seen both of these; a righteous man perishing in his righteousness, and a wicked man living long in his wickedness. Do not be over righteous, neither be over wise- why destroy yourself? Do not be over wicked, and do not be a fool- why die before your time? It is good to grasp the one and not let go of the other. The man who fears God will avoid all extremes. Wisdom makes one wise man more powerful than ten rulers in a city. There is not a righteous man on earth who does what is right and never sins." Ecclesiastes 7:13-20 NIV
