Happy Birthday to the best dad and husband we could ever have!


I love you James because... (from sonya)
you are so generous
you are so patient
you are so kind
you show me grace.


I love you Daddy because... (from charlotte)
I love you so much
you have whiskers
you tickle me
you're so sweet.


I love you Daddy because...(from abel)
you play tickle monster
you play with me

When we got our Christmas tree

I'm not so good at uploading video from my phone. So hopefully this works.

Breakfast

I'm enjoying a fun morning out with my special girl.

Christmas cookies

We had fun making Christmas cookies tonight. Sonya thinks hers are the best. Oh COME ON!

Christmas Party

We had a great time at the Mutual company Christmas party. We always love the opportunity for a date night out.

Merry Christmas!!

We continued our tradition of getting our Christmas tree from the Christmas tree farm across the street.

Thanksgiving

We had Thanksgiving at our house again this year. Here is Sonya, her brother (Uncle Aaron), and Charlotte.
