This, That & the Other


What happens when your life is crazy busy and you finally get to sit down and look at your blog?

You post ...
... this, that & the other.

I do this a lot, don't I?

Well. Your gonna just love the crazy amount of time it takes you to scroll through these pictures ....

Seriously. Love.


 Asher, AKA: the smashinator, AshSmash, Smash is now a CRAWLER! He doesn't roll over (because he gets stuck) but ... the kid is on the move!


Piano lessons: Browning style. FaceTime with our wonderful new piano teacher Mary Kate. She is awesome, and I am fond of her because she's a satirical genius ... much like me. ;)


A little Christmas splash in our Sunroom. (ohhhh the joys of a Sunroom - so so so fun and COLD in the winter!)


An old chest given to us by family that we put in the Sunroom, which is also affectionately called the 'reading room'


Fireplace pretties ...


A different type of wreath this year! Mama loves . . . 


A little of our entryway - which includes an old picture of our home that was apparently moved from a different location 


Fireplace ... and a shortage of stockings. I made these many moons ago - and can not find anymore finials for holders and can't make more stockings (material long gone) Will have to get creative next year.
(my most excellent hubby got me a serger for Christmas that I am DYING to dig into)


This picture cracks me up. They are watching Russian cartoons on YouTube. Ummmmm. My girls are ALL into it and can't understand a word, and Max is like totally the cool kid who gets it!

Next few photos are from a recital just done. Mary Kate Zachary is an excellent teacher and we are SUPER grateful to be under her tutelage.
















These next images are from a Christmas Cantata our church (Northwest Baptist Church of Port Orchard) just did.

The choir was EXCELLENT 
Phillip, myself and Isaac were in the play portion









Asher started solids! YAY!!!!!



 Justus is helping me make Christmas cookies here by banging candy canes to smithereens. 


And with that, the destruction of the candy cane, I hope you and yours had a very Merry Christmas!!!!
