Long Time No Post

Sick babies and our big Christmas Festival service (which requires lots of rehearsing!) at church have kept me from posting recently. But everyone is better and our service went very well!

Well, Joshua is almost completely potty trained now! He hasn't had an accident in weeks. He's still wearing diapers at night, so I guess that's our next hurdle. He woke up dry this morning though, so we're close!!

Adam has finished repairing our ceiling and now we're in the process of moving everything back into the bedroom. There's still stuff all over the house, so this will be a short post! Enjoy the pictures!

Here are the Christmas bags that I made this year...instead of using wrapping paper

Joshua feeding Baby Esther her bottle

Woohoo!!!

We just found out that Adam has been accepted to dental school! It's a huge answer to prayer and we're very excited and thankful. Here is a picture of my handsome, smart, charming, hard-working, intelligent husband with his acceptance letter. :-)

Christmas Hymns

I love Christmas hymns...here is the text to my favorite one.

Thou who was rich beyond all splendor,
All for love's sake becamest poor;
Thrones for a manger didst surrender,
Sapphire paved courts for stable floor.
Thou who was rich beyond all splendor,
All for love's sake becamest poor.

Thou who art God beyond all praising,
All for love's sake becamest man;
Stooping so low, but sinners raising,
Heav'nward by thine eternal plan.
Thou who are God beyond all praising,
All for love's sake becamest man.

Thou who art love beyond all telling,
Savior and King, we worship thee.
Emmanuel, within us dwelling,
Make us what thou wouldst have us be.
Thou who art love beyond all telling,
Savior and King, we worship thee.
