Jenna has been taking piano for about 10 months now and she surely has a gift. She practices everyday without being asked and sometimes twice and has excelled quickly. People are amazed how good she is for the time that she has taken. She had a big recital in September that we forgot to take our camera to and a little one with 3 other kids at one of the students homes in December. I LOVE listening to hear practice. Especailly when she goes above and beyond and starts learning other songs on her own.
We have had a lot of snow this year so fat along with the rest of the country. Of coarse with snow comes at least one or two snowmen. Meagan was sick that day and didn't get to help so it was just Ryan, Chase, and Jenna that made this little man.
Neighbor gifts this year were a long time coming. I bought these little wooden sleds about 5 or 6 years ago with the idea of doing neighbor Christmas gifts and I finally did it this year....with Tyler's help (he was home sick from school). They turned out really cute, I think.
So, yes, we have had the "sick" going around in our house. My kids are pretty healthy for the most part and don't get much but colds every-once-in-a-while but this year we just passed it from one to another. All were good during Christmas and the surrounding days though so that was a blessing. Dave and I have been fine....and with that I will close my entry and go find some wood to knock on.
