Christmas - Dec. 26, 2012

I am actually posting this in January, but dated it to when we celebrated. We had a fun time at Mama and Papa's. We had the lasagna dinner on the 25th, then had berry waffles and lots of presents on the 26th. Here are a bunch of photos. Kelly made Nicholas this great beard/Viking hat and the pies and bacon scarf (last photo)for Matthew. Mark made Papa a board for recording the kids' height and Nicholas designed the license plate for Papa's Polara.

Winner! - Dec 5

Matthew won two raffle baskets at his work party. This one has a footprint painted by one of the clouded leopards. The kitties thought it smelled really interesting!

Random November Nov 30

Here are a few things I was going to post in November but got sidetracked:

Matthew grew his beard for MoVember. This is just before he shaved for Thanksgiving.

Nicholas made Hardanger lefse for Mama and Papa's Thanksgiving. Here he is working on the dough.

Matthew did a bit of carving and had some lap help from Topaz. We did have two Thanksgivings, the first at Mama and Papa's (but we didn't take pictures!) and the second here with Owen's family. Here are some photos from that:
