Christmas with Grandma and Grandpa

We had a fun Christmas celebration with Grandma and Grandpa and the gang. We sang and played and ate and opened presents. It was a fun day with family!

Home at last

Home at last! Just some random pictures from our first few weeks home. We have missed the warm desert!

Cake from Claudia

Special delivery from a friend! A woman at church loves to welcome and pray for the missionaries. As we were packing to leave she had a mutual friend drop off this cake for us! What a pleasant surprise. It looks as good as it tastes!

Movie night with some friends

Our friends invited us over to watch a movie and they even made tickets and had treats! The kids used their pennies to buy what they wanted. What a fun time. They even watched it in English for us!

Trip to Grenoble

Not only did Tim take us to Annecy but also to Grenoble! It was a highlight for sure. We ate at a local Creperie and Tim even got a picture with a random passerbyer. (she asked and the picture is not included). We rode up the mountain in an “egg” and spent our afternoon and early evening exploring an old fort. So so fun. We even got to see an exhibit from the French soldiers in Afghanistan. It was such a neat day.

Trip to Annecy with Tim

We had a fun day trip to Annecy with “Tim the man” in November. We visited our first and last Castle. It was so much fun going from room to room and seeing just how big and strong it was. We even found the toilets! The boys enjoyed looking out from the various crawl spaces. We even got a few pictures to share. Thanks Tim for the fun!

Lazy Sunday Afternoon

This is one of our favorite places to go be and do outside. A friend of ours made a bow and arrow for Micah and it was the perfect place to test it out. There weren’t many other people here, behind the huge Castle in one of their numerous gardens. Micah shot his bow and arrow, Zoe danced, Caleb played ball with Mark and Ali played with friends. Such a fun enjoyable afternoon.

Leisurely Sunday Stroll

Ok, we went for a little hike so Mark could take pictures of this cute little water feature. We found some fun surprises along the way. Micah and Mark enjoyed giving me heart attacks by leaping off things! Caleb picked me flowers as always when we are out. It is so so sweet.

Zoe Zoe Pouting

If we were living in town many of you would experience this regularly so since we are not I thought I’d share! I know it is just wrong to take pictures of the pout but it is so cute we can hardly take it seriously. . We can’t all be first-borns
