Melissa, Andy and the kids' Blog

 Lilian is enjoying gymnastics. Helmet, tutu, camo pants and boots... just a normal Thursday.  Melissa crocheted a bag for Trisha and one for herself.  Here she is modeling an over the shoulder to show Trish.  Building sentences for homeschool. "The fish is in a pond." "The frog has a tractor" January 19th we drove down to Phoenix.  We stopped and spent the afternoon with grandma, I cooked dinner and we spent a little more time, then headed to our hotel near the airport.  Sitting in the airport was probably the most difficult part of the trip.  We don't look like we are screaming and fighting about masks... but we are!   Getting ready for takeoff.  We decided to take one picture with big eyes. January 20th, a little before noon.  Melissa taking care of her pair.  While mine naps... just kidding.  This was several hours later.  Hannah was a wonderful traveling companion.  When we landed in Kona it was pretty quick...

Christmas eve, the kids opened 1 present, which happened to be 3 presents from Grandma Jack.  The kittens were recovering from being fixed and Lilian took it upon her self to be their nurse.  Wrestling with uncle Andrew.  I made a Yule Log... my first ever and it was delicious.   We had Christmas Eve dinner at Grandma Workman's and Andrew and Grandma rocked out during song time.  Getting ready for bed. These kids are still young enough that they can actually fall asleep on Christmas Eve, it was great. Merry Christmas! They started the day with their new play couch! Getting ready to open presents.  Then Christmas exploded! Merry Christmas.  Playtime .  The kids got each other wooden toys from Redd's, Finn and I are building his racecar before he painted it.  The girls got dragons from Amanda (cousin gifts, but she couldn't remember who had who.)  We went riding with Grandma and Andrew.  It was a little muddy.  Oh, snuggles....
