2nd Week of December

Here are some highlights from the 2nd week of December:

 Flashbacks of Nyles, then and now.  He's getting so big!

Steve is making progress on the attic.

On Tuesday we had our last activity days for the year.  We discussed the true meaning of Christmas and then made gingerbread (graham cracker) nativity scenes.  Some used hot glue to make them stick, others tried frosting.

Making nativity scenes.

The boys and girls w/ their completed nativities.

Hudson showing us he's "cool" like dad.  Nyles giving Steve a horsey ride, then Hudson.

Tuesday night the YW/YW also got together and made graham cracker houses, but from the scriptures. Nyles group made King Benjamin's tower.

Buddy, our Elf, having fun w/ the yodeling pickle we got at the family white elephant gift exchange.
More progress in the attic, taking out the original boards after adding new ones, in order to make the room a little bigger.  Good work Steve!

Great quote.  We got a little snow.  Carter has been taking a gymnastics class every Thursday afternoon.  He's working hard and learning a lot, working on backflips.

Thursday morning Steve and I went to the chiropractor, then I had a Dr appt w/ my Rheumatologist.   I did Physical Therapy for 8 weeks, and it seemed to help strengthen my hip area.  My hips have still been hurting, but not necessarily getting worse.  I'm going to get an Arthrogram MRI on both of my hips on the 20th.  We're going to see if there is more inflammation that has built up the past 6 months, if so I'll start some medication to treat it.  We're also going to see if my labral tear has changed.

Friday night was our Ward Christmas Party.  The Primary kids sang a song.


Steve w/ the progress in the attic.  Looking good!
Buddy, our Elf, ready to play laser tag w/ the boys.  Great quote.

Saturday evening we picked up some Dominos pizza for dinner and went over to Dave and Joann's.  We had dinner together and watched the new movie Wild Robot.  It was really good!

Sunday evening we had our Jerusalem Dinner.  The kids also put together some bags for homeless people that we can all give out.  After dinner we had our testimony meeting.
