Misc. Pictures From December

Jordan took an online car class this month and so I have lots of pictures of the inside of the car. 

He also took this picture... It's really weird :) 

Jordan and Jackson made these gingerbread houses in their baked good class at co-op. 

Kenzie drew herself a nativity scene. 

Doug and I always write different names on our gift tags to each other ones like to Leaf, from Sienna, or to basketball from volleyball. It keeps things interesting and is a tradition passed on from my parents. Jordan likes it and made up his own for his siblings. For Kenzie he wrote to Henry Huggins, from Harry Potter. 

We went to see the musical lights in Maple Valley. 

Jordan made a water filter for his engineering class. 

Doug and I went to Bellevue for a weekend without the kids. We saw Jumanji 2, ate out, shopped at the mall, and watched several Christmas movies. When we ate at the Cheesecake Factory, it was at the same time as Snowflake lane so while we waited for our table we went out and watched the snow fall. We were glad we got there before Snowflake Lane was over because as soon as it was over the wait time at Cheesecake Factory tripled.

Our freezer broke so we got a new and improved fridge! We love it! It seems to keep our food more fresh and it has so much more room. 

Doug invented something at work and got it patented! We went to Taco Time to celebrate. 

Kenzie got an email address and instant messaging on google. She was able to talk to Nati and after declared she missed Nati even more. She immediately sat down and drew a picture of Nati and her typing to each other: 

Kenzie and Coleman snuggled up watching Rudolph together. 

Kenzie and I went to Ashlee's ornament party. We had so much fun and came home with some cute ornaments!

Jordan loves playing Doug's new exercise game, Ring Fit Adventure.

Kenzie is still missing Nati so much and is excited to see her in about a month!

Coleman came downstairs yesterday and saw me undecorating the Christmas tree. He said "that's dumb." I told him that wasn't very nice especially since I was doing something nice by taking the lights off myself instead of having him do it. He said he wanted to do it. So I let him help. And I told him we had to do it since the yard waste people were going to be picking it up in the morning, so he didn't think it was quite so dumb:)
