What a month December has been. Seems like it has snowed about every other day and everything was covered in ice for a while. Sure was beautiful and didn't slow us down much, life still went on for us. That is when we weren't shoveling to get out so we could.
We risked life and limb (passed about 10 times accidents actually) to get to Des Moines to watch Blake wrestle. He had a pretty good day actually with 2 pins. His main problem is keeping his weight up. He doesn't graze and eat like some of the rest of us, wish I had that problem!
Blake, and under the blanket is Jacob. My boys like to lay over the heating ducts in the living room to get warm. They used to fit over them, now they have really overgrown them and have a hard time fitting over them!
Blake did not hesitate when I asked him to help Grandma bring in the presents from her car when she arrived for Christmas, he went out in robe and slippers!
Laura graduated from Bethel University in Minneapolis December 19th so we took the grandparents and headed up. We are so proud of all she has accomplished. Jacob stayed for a few extra days with her and Adam and had a blast! They played lots of games, whiffle ball on the ice rink, and made gingerbread houses with some friends, they are great siblings! Our house seemed rather small this Christmas, when did all these guys grow up, seems like yesterday they were just children.....
well maybe I spoke too soon! But we love them all. Surely God can use a bunch of hams who belong to Him. It was a fun Christmas. We hope yours was too, Happy New Year 2008 also!
