Crossroad Chapel Christmas Program

"Starring" (in minor roles) Henri as a sheep:

Martha as an angel:

Chloe as baby Jesus (with Gema as Mary):

and baby Jesus was so tired out by her role that she fell asleep for the last ten minutes of the program.

Catching up with the speed of life

Here are a few photos from the past month or so that haven't made it to the blog yet...

Would you believe that we started to get our first accumulating snow fall as we drove out of the driveway on the way to get a tree? Made for nice photos.

First family shot with all five of us. It's difficult to get everyone in the same place at the same time.

The cousins had their annual sleep-over at Abuela & Abeulo's before Thanksgiving.

Chloe's baptism.

Three pumpkins in a patch.

Thanksgiving @ the East K-8

Students at the East K-8 ate their Thanksgiving Dinner today, family style. Students sat with their "families" (groups made of two students from each grade).

Here's Martha with her family.



They made room for all of the students (close to 600!) to eat at once by setting tables in all of the hallways surrounding the cafeteria.

reality show

Last night some friends came over for dinner and marveled at the fact that our house was so picked up considering we have three kids. 24 hours later, it is back to its usual state.

stitches

Two weeks ago, Henri was running around at a local church (where we've been attending Wed. Eve. activities) with our neighbor. A little stumble, head hits chair, and he and I are in the emergency room getting three stitches.

melons!

after lots of waiting (and running out to check on them before breakfast most mornings this summer), the melons that henri planted were finally ready for picking.
