HAPPY NEW YEAR PART 4

HAPPY NEW YEAR PART 4

We moved into a rental for now. Short term until we know where we are going. 

This is the rental. We moved out two weeks into December. Not bad weather for moving. Its spacious for what we need. It was a blessing to find this place. 

This is our house we sold. Many years and memories are going with us.

So with our new place (temporary rental) we went and got a fresh tree to put up and didn't have to worry about the height of it because this house has taller ceilings.

 Watering the tree.

 We did a great job! Thanks everyone.

GINGERBREAD HOUSE

The girls finally got to make this gingerbread house.

CHRISTMAS MORNING

We are making our Christmas morning breakfast (that is what it is called). It is like Monkey Bread.

While this bakes, lets open our gifts.

 Her hair isn't permed just used straws overnight and wha-la this is what you get, instant curls.

We spent our holidays with family. We had so much food and goodies. Thanks to everyone who cooked the meals and goodies. 

Isaiah 9:6

For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.

This now brings us to New Year's Eve and Day. 

We spent New Year's Eve at home (as usual). I cooked up some yummy finger foods and Dad picked up the movies. We stayed in and enjoyed our family time. New Year's Day we gathered up the whole family and ate lunch a local restaurant. So with that we are up to date bringing in the new year.

1 Corinthians 13:7 

Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Thank you for following us on our journey. 

Many blessings to you all.

HAPPY NEW YEAR PART 3

HAPPY NEW YEAR PART 3

We managed to squeeze in 2 field trips and a family outing:

1st field trip is at the Roasterie Plant

 Getting ready to take the tour. We are to wear these funny looking head coverings.

These are inside the plant. We got to sample some coffee. 

2nd Field Trip was to the Water Plant

It was a gorgeous day for this trip.

 Very informational .

The girls had their Halloween Party

Tris from Divergent

Evil Queen from Once a Upon a Time

Family outing was at:

Van Till Family Farm Winery

 We got to watch our pizzas being cooked. The guy here is one of the Van Till kids and gave lots of information about how this oven was made and what all they cook on it outside of pizza.

 This not only looks yummy and it tasted awesome!

We sat outside in a heated area. 

They even brought out blankets to use.

This was a nice outing with all the packing and house hunting we had been doing.
