one more day!

went simple with the wreath this year

soy wax crayon stars

guess what we're having for christmas dinner??

andrea knit the boys dinosaurs... isaac's is the green one and ezra's is the orange one.

isaac's knit slippers... i thought i had two little pig buttons but the other is missing... so sad.

homestead gardens from the road (this is only 1/5 of the lights! they were amazing!)

art bags

the national christmas tree in all its glory

hooray for clementine season

ezra and i have been doing lots of snuggling...



hope you and yours are loving each other and celebrating the little Lord Jesus stepping out of heaven and into a bed of straw amongst the meek and lowly...

their myriad leaves in leisured dance...

And see the peaceful trees extend
their myriad leaves in leisured dance—
they bear the weight of sky and cloud
upon the fountain of their veins.

holly's fire engine

steve's log cabin

leave it to me to be the boring traditional one...

devin's mayan temple, complete with sacrificed/beheaded gummy bear

knitting, knitting, and more knitting to be finished in time for christmas...
