Christmas Blessings

2019 was a sweet Christmas season, full of all of our favorite traditions and time with family. 

Decorating the tree. 
 S'more's first Christmas. 
 Annual gift exchange with our besties. 
 Decorating a gingerbread house left by our elf, Max. 

 A sweet Christmas Eve service with cousins. 


 Enjoying a quiet afternoon by the tree after church. 
 Christmas jammies before we headed to Papa & Grandma's for dinner and gifts. 


 Papa Jack & Cora
 Cavanagh cousins. 





 We spent the entire day of Christmas at home, which was so nice. It was 60*, so we enjoyed a lunch on the patio and our new game of Spikeball in the backyard. 

A few days later we traveled to Grandma & Grandpa Vogel's to spend time with the Vogel cousins.  


Our greatest gifts. So blessed during this season. 


Lately

November was a fun month with some school events for Kate, Thanksgiving travels, and time with friends. 

I was able to sneak away from work to watch Kate's 6th grade volleyball tournament. It was incredibly loud, but so fun to watch. 

 Frozen 2 on our first day of Thanksgiving Break
 Baby Jane smile is the best. 


 Another school event: Biztown, which was right down the street from my school so I was able to stop by. Kate was the CEO of the insurance company. 
 Winter concert. 
 Andrew was knocked out with Influenza, which lead to a rough 3-5 days. 
 ISU basketball game. We love Hilton!
