Holiday Highlights
Here are some pictures of the best moments of our holiday season. Rachel and Ally each recieved a college football hat ~ yes...we are a mixed family.
Allison purchased reindeer gear from the dollar store and played Rudolph periodically through the past few weeks.
We celebrated Jesus' birthday with a bunch of great homeschoolers. We made crafts and each child lit a candle from Jesus' candle to represent how we take His light into our hearts. 
Ella decided that the kitties were hers....it looks quite natural I must say!
Here is a great shot of all the homeschool piano students. We have an amazing teacher, who passes along a passion for music and for God. She had the kids do a Christmas recital at a nursing home.
Allison practicing her songs...The house was filled with music this year and it was just precious.
Rachel plays with a smile!
Willow.....my 40th birthday present (got her a bit early) and my favorite Christmas gift from my parents and Nathan ~ an English saddle. My how my priorites have changed. Last year it was a gift certificate to J.Jill!!
One more Equestrian shot....Ally riding Tango bareback.
Nathan and I at his holiday party. I sang "Santa Baby" to him becasue he is such a great, frugal financial advisor! Complete with text changes "Think of all the floors I've waxed , think of all the credit cards I HAVEN'T maxed."
And finally, a very dramatic reindeer pose.
Hope everyone had a blessed Christmas and we wish you a happy New Year!!!

Great pictures! You look gorgeous at your holiday party! I always make up goofy songs for my husband too. He's a banker who loves to fly fish so every variation on those subjects to every possible tune have been maxed out. He needs to expand his hobbies, preferably to something easy to rime with!
What great Birthday and Christmas presents! I'm jealous. This Christmas everything was horse themed. But no actual horses yet, but we're keeping our eyes open for the right one! As newly transplanted to the country "city folk", we are learning not to rush in to anything.... and to do LOTS of research. We are still horse newbies. We know we love them, and love to ride 'em, but still have no clue what we are doing.
Happy New Year!!!!! ~K

Looks like you had a fun holiday with your family! :)
Thanks for commenting on my blog about the Sally Clarkson book and her blog. What other books of her's would you recommend? Her writing is so practical and loving, a beautiful example of Titus 2 and older women teaching younger women.
Blessings, Jenny

What wonderful photos! You need to a put a video of you singing that song on your blog...love the text changes...what a hoot (as we say in NC). Your dd's are simply beautiful. It must have been so uplifiting for the nursing home residents to see such beautiful young people bringing Christmas music to them. I'm glad your Christmas season was so blessed.

Busy year but great learning processes. Hope you are doing well!

Let me guess. You gave up blogging for lent and then decided real life was better than this imaginary world we're all living in. :)
I just keeping coming back hoping you've posted again. When you do (I'm optimistic), hop on over and let me know!
I pray all is well with you and your family!
Blessings,
Angel
