Christmas Recap





Christmas came and went very quickly this year.  Here are a few photos to capture some of the fun! 




I was more excited to give this gift to my little guy then him getting it.  Don't let me decieve you he was very excited to jump on the bike but it soon lost it's appeal when we realized he is still a little short to pedal the bike.  :(


So glad I snatched one of Amazon's Lightning deals for this plasma car because no pedals are needed.  


My daughter loves her new scooter that her papa bought her.  She also got a pair of roller blades from her aunt and uncle.  So this Christmas could be summarized with WHEELS!  :)


We had a birthday party for Jesus at church and that was a blast and the cake was yummy! 


Batman made an appearance and he seems to visit daily with high energy! 


We also had to make cut out cookies because Christmas can't be complete without this tradition!  


There are several other traditions our family enjoyed like a Christmas Eve service, Happy Birthday Jesus Pancakes, and traveling to family.  

Bring on 2014!  Be Blessed!

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Book Review: "God I feel Scared"

Kids have big feelings, but none of their feelings are too big for God. In this picture book from licensed counselor Michelle Nietert and Tama Fortner, young readers will explore what it means to feel scared and discover how to manage their emotions in a healthy way. Scared is a feeling that can be hard to face, but if we listen to it, we can learn things about ourselves. In  God, I Feel Scared , children will discover that it’s okay to be scared and that God is with us in all things, including fear. With simple, accessible text, scared becomes an emotion that kids don’t need to avoid and instead something they can use to better understand themselves and grow closer to God. The bright, emotive art by Nomar Perez will draw kids in, and a note in the back provides tips and techniques parents and caregivers can use to help young children process their feelings in a beneficial way. God, I Feel Scared  teaches kids ages 4 to 8 how to: Identify the feeling of fear and recognize thin...
