Perot Musuem

We took a field trip with our homeschool coop group to the Perot Museum in Dallas this week.  It has tons of hands on educational displays that we all enjoyed.

Emma meets her first dinosaur.


 The girls get to fly like eagles.



They got to be weather girls!


Who had more fun here - Chris or the girls?!


let the wise listen and add to their learning,
and let the discerning get guidance

Christmas at the beach

 
This year for Christmas my parents generously invited my family and my sister and her family to a beach house in Cape San Blas, Florida. 
 

We were more than happy to spend the week playing in the sand and hanging on the beach.


We had a fun week (in spite of the 14 plus hour drive each way) and made some good, family, holiday memories.
 


Chris and I even got in a few childless runs together - priceless!





The gang on Christmas morning.



Papa caught a fish as his Christmas present!



This picture of the girls holding hands melts my heart every time I look at it and makes parenting worth it for me!

We hope you all had a Merry Christmas and have a blessed 2014!
 


Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.
