Christmas prep work

This house keeps getting busier, but nothing stops my Mom!


Gingerbread house with the grand kids? No problem! 


When Mom bakes cookies with the kids even Luke gets a turn to add something to bowl.  That's impressive. 


And I love this last picture.... John Paul (intense), Lydia (talking), Isaac (focused).  All of them (even Julianna in the red shirt) constantly in motion, constantly in contact with each other. 

Are they reflecting a bit of their host-Asian culture in this respect?  I wonder.  Regardless, personal space is not something we see a lot of!  

As of yesterday morning Jen and Stephen and Raleigh (my brother, sister-in-law and nephew) are here too.  Full house.  Full hearts.  Lots of fun. 


Blurry photo of a Luke-Raleigh embrace.  We do lots of blurry motion :)  Luke is 51 days older than his littlest cousin - and he calls Raleigh "baby".  Let's just say Luke is thankful to relinquish his role as the littlest kid on the block!

Merry Christmas Kvernans! Love the photo of Grandmama with all the kids decorating the gingerbread house - what fun! And Luke embracing Raleigh - so sweet!
Looking forward to the new year with optimism and hope!
