Jonah's First Piano Recital

I was so proud of Jonah when he played Christmas carols in front of a whole room full of people.

Our first big snow of the winter

Jonah worked so hard on the driveway!


Isaac enjoyed shovel rides courtesy of daddy!



Zeke was thrilled with the sled!




And our house looked prettier than ever.




We have had so much fun in the beautiful white snow.
