Church Gym Fun

We met the Wilsons, Mason, and Koper at the church to play volleyball, pickleball, and basketball.

New Years Day

New Years Day was our last day with the Kenyons. They left that night:( We had so much fun with them the entire time they were here!

These 4, with Sam put on a great show!

Day After Christmas

The Kenyons went to see Richard's sister and her family the day after Christmas for the first half of the day so we just hung out at home until close to dinner time, then went to my parents' house.

I still hadn't cleaned up the mess from all the presents.

Christmas

We went to church on Christmas morning. The Kenyons and my dad came too. Jackson played "O Come O Come Emmanuel" on the piano beautifully. We came home and read the Christmas story and watch "The Coat" and another Christmas clip, as we always do. Then we opened presents.

Jackson only said a couple things he wanted: sport jerseys, especially of the Kraken, and a computer bag. So he was surprised by most of this presents.

Coleman didn't notice his rollie chair until I pointed it out to him :)

A blindfold for solving Rubik's Cubes.

Kenzie was so excited to give him this giant rubik's cube, and he loved it!
