Catching Up



So many pictures, so desperately out of order... I'll try to caption most of them to document what we've been up to lately!

Worn out after a morning at "The Pizza Shop" a.k.a. Costco.
The big girls had their Christmas concert last night.

Cuzzie love

Hannah had a speaking part! She was very brave and remembered all her words.
Snuggling Aunt Vicky at Lewis-Ginter
Mom & Dad took us to the Lewis Ginter light festival in Richmond. It was so much fun to stay out late and look at all the pretty decorations! Aunt Sarah and Aunt Vicky were much needed to help maintain order. ;)

Merry Christmas :)

Sus and Than loved all the trains.



They were secretly glad I tagged along - that's a lot of Yummies to keep track of in the dark, Figgy!



Silly ladies in a butterfly

More pics from before the concert last night. Pop helped me get everyone all dolled up.

Sweetness!


Mommy fun at our women's cookie swap at CC Mech

Hannie works on her masterpieces every day

Thanksgiving at Massanutten with a bunch of Ackers! The kids had a blast with their cousins Sydnie and Maddie.

It's not Thanksgiving without rough-housing with Uncle Ben


Our newest newlyweds in the family, Cakes & Linsey!







Aunt Carol gave us a lesson on how to make Grand-Millie's fudge.

Carissa took 2 pages worth of notes

Uncle Rip taught Hannie how to crack her first eggs!

Aunt Sarah took Charis on her first 5k at the Harrisonburg Turkey Trot!



Aunt Sarah came at 6:20 in the morning with a bag full of brand new running clothes, Charis' race number, and a banana for energy. She was SO excited.

Sus turned 3 in November!


Monkey girls





Who needs photo booth apps when you have pretzel sticks?

I got to take the big girls to The Music Man in Richmond! It was Charis' first real play (Hannie had been to one with me last year), and we all had a great time. :)
