Christmas.. kinda late!

Christmas eve we bake a birthday cake for Jesus and this year I wanted to try out the recipe that I am going to make for the girls' birthday cupcakes, pumpkin apple harvest cake with whipped cream and cream cheese frosting. Well Maraliese snatched Radley's piece. I guess we know she will like her birthday cake.



Pumpkin cinnamon rolls for Christmas morning.

Maraliese is my climber and Izabelle is walking, she has not crawled since Sunday.


Rob gets a new MP3 player.


So, here I am because some would have said why no pictures of Christy. Greasy hair and all. But where there is no pride, there is no embarrassment. ; )


Radley trying out his recorder. He's not too bad.


Izabelle cooking in the kafka kid's new red retro wooden kitchen.... THANKS GRANDMA!
She really gets into it and make mmmm sounds as she pretends to eat.


Maralise playing in wrapping paper.


Radley helping Izzy play his harmonica, which by the way was his favorite present.




Our church is a church plant and still small so we did not have a Christmas eve service. So here are the kids in their "Christmas outfits" on Sunday morning.
Little Izzy trying to put her jacket on.


Masha girl... look at those rosy checks!


Way too hard to get a good pic of these kids. They are always moving and being silly.
But cute none the less.

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and were able to experience God's love, grace, and mercy. This Christmas was a struggle for us . So, Robert and I decided to make some changes in our "traditions", so we can fully celebrate the greatest gift mankind has ever known...
Jesus Christ.
