Our Christmas Weekend

I love Andrews smile. You can tell he loves what he got 

We had a wonderful Christmas thank you to my Mom and Dad, and  our Jesus Christ who was born this day. Even in this busyness we give you thanks. We all got up at whatever time but you could not come out of your room till 8am. Then we went downstairs and opened our stockings. When we did our stockings we went to our living room. And on the 3rd picture you can tell how it was. I will never forget the three Ghana ones faces. They did not know what to do. It was so cute. 

 Yesterday my Uncle and his son came to visit us. We always have a good time. He lives about 2hours away so we miss him alot. I love you both.

Yes we have been busy this couple of days. We even took our Christmas stuff down. We are all ready to go back to normal :)  How about you?

A funny experience

For my b-day my brother Joseph got me a Dallas Cowboys jersey. Tonight I was at a  grocery store and two men complimented me because of my jersey. One of them liked the Cowboys and the other Redskins. The Redskin fan said that the Cowboy fan liked my jersey.My mom asked them,''Why aren't you watching the game ?"...And the Dallas fan said''I'm getting my pack(beer)!".What made me laugh is when I went to the check out and saw the cashier was wearing a Dallas hoodie.So those two men started to talk him about Dallas too.It was more hilarious than I can put into words.As I got home I started  to watch the game.Dallas are leading 28-0 right now.

Andrew and his big smile

Here are some pictures of Andrew. He sits on his swing and pushes himself. It is so cute. He loved doing that. He is doing well. He is getting so big now. I can't believe it. In the last picture of him I love his big smile. It is like he knew I wanted a cute picture of him and he gave it to me. Thank you Andrew you made my night.

The Christmas Shoes-Movie

This is a good movie. I hope you have a chance to see it this Christmas if you haven't.

Lights at the park

Tonight all of us went to see Christmas lights at our park. Every year they have it. I thought this year they had even more. We all took 3 cars this time. I know it seems really funny but we had to. My niece Ava and Mady came to. It was lots of fun going through them.

Our Happy Little Boy

Andrew loves to jump. When he came home he had a jolly jumper and he loved it. That is one way how he billed his mussels in his legs. In this video Leah is just holding him so he does not fall. You can tell how much he loved it and had lots of fun.

How Great is our God

Last night my sisters heard this song on a radio. It has different languages. They heard all different languages even Russian one and were really impress with this song.
 It is so amazing to hear how all the people all over the world can worship our God. He is our great God.

We are ready for Christmas :)

Today we  decorated for Christmas. We love Christmas. Here are some pictures of our day. It was good but busy. Everyone did a good job. We trued to get everything done before the dark came. Which we did.

What are they doing?

 
Mya has started to do paper dolls. She has a whole book with them. In every page she has something to do with  a paper doll. Today all the girls were setting and doing the same thing. Even Luke who is ten :) 

There is a story behind of all of this. My sister Rachel said this is what they did in Ukraine. They did not have really dolls so they made them out of paper. How sad is that. Little girls who love to play with dolls don't have that.
