Happy New Year from our CRAZY CREW!

Day 25

Yesterday we rejoiced and celebrated Jesus’s birthday! This was our scenery while we were driving from my families to Trevor’s families. A beautiful way to celebrate the Wonders of God!

Merry Christmas from the Daucsavage side of our family!

We hope all of you are enjoying a wonderful Holiday season and a blessed New Year!

Day 23 and 24

Yesterday and today we have been rejoicing with more family time. Merry Christmas from the Hillstrom side of our family!

Day 22

Today we rejoiced with Uncle Lee, Aunt Micki, and our cousins Ben, Joe, and Tony. They came to visit for the afternoon and it was wonderful to be together during the Christmas season. I have so many fond memories of Christmas vacations with them. What a wonderful day!

Day 20 and 21

 

Day 20

Yesterday Taylor had his first school SongFest. He did a great job. Trevor and I were both able to watch and we LOVED it. (He is in the back row with the blue striped sweater.)

Day 21

Today we are rejoicing that it is the Christmas season and we are able to travel and visit family. We do NOT have and inch to spare in the car, but we are happy, healthy, and excited to celebrate with our families!

This picture of Ollie is too cute to not include. He enjoyed that sucker for an hour and 45 minutes in the car today!

Rejoicing Day 19

Taylor has been sick the past three days and today is the first day he felt good enough to get dressed and eat more than toast. Back to school tomorrow!

Rejoicing Day 10, 11, and 12

I am getting a little behind so here are some things we have been rejoicing about this week…

Day 10 – Taylor had his first official SNOW DAY! While ASOM were napping we got to make some Christmas Cookies.

Taylor is the official egg cracker whenever he helps me bake. He does a great job!

Day 11 – I am rejoicing over all the Christmas cards we have received so far. Incase you don’t know, I LOVE getting Christmas cards, so I am sure to ALWAYS check my mail during the holidays.

Our pantry doors are half full already.

Day 12 – We are rejoicing in having a 9 year old dog who is FINALLY slowing down and will take time to snuggle with his buddy Taylor.

 

Enjoy your last hour or so of 12-12-12!

Rejoicing Day 9

Today we are rejoicing for ALL the snow we got over night and are STILL getting! I think we have a foot of snow, and now the winds are picking up. We are in a Blizzard Warning until midnight tonight. I LOVE IT!

Church was canceled today, so instead I decided to take all five kids outside to play. They loved the idea of putting on their snow pants and boots, but once they got in the snow and couldn’t move, they really did not want to be out.

Hope you are all enjoying your day!

Rejoicing Day 8

Today we are rejoicing because this is the date 18 years ago that Trevor and I met (thanks to our friends Dea and Brad). Trevor has now officially known me half his life, lucky him!

Rejoicing Day 7

Today we rejoiced in the fact that it was Friday Night, Family Movie Night! We watched The Polar Express and even enjoyed some homemade Polar Express Recipe Hot Chocolate!

We love our big sectional couch, all seven of us fit perfectly!

“Here we only have one rule, never ever let it cool! Hot Chocolate!”

Taylor loved the hot chocolate, as you can see.

Rejoicing Day 5 and 6!

Yesterday we had a great day of just spending time together as a family!

Today we are rejoicing in Taylor’s first report card and he has done a wonderful job! Way to go Little Buddy!
