Update

Just a quick update and some pictures of what we have been up to lately.

Madalyn got a gingerbread decorating kit yesterday as a present so we put it together today. It was really quite fun and I think Malcolm and I got into it just as much as Madalyn did! It was a fun family activity. I think it turned out pretty cute! In this present she also got an advent calendar with a little book of fun ways you can do an activity as a family to remember and celebrate each day of advent. I am looking forward to using it!

All done!

We celebrated American Thanksgiving with just the three of us and it turned out to be a really great day! Madalyn and I stayed home all day while I did all of the cooking and watched the Macy's parade. It was fun watching it with her and showing her all the big floats. She loved watching the singers and dancers from the different musicals on Broadway they had perform and watching the Rockettes. She actually was trying to do their routine with them! It was so cute! Trying to kick her legs and moving her arms aound like them. :)

Our Journey Care Group started meeting in November and we really love it! We have a great group and it has been a great way to connect and share life with other families. A week ago we made cookies and some other treats for the staff at the school where we meet every Sunday. I am excited to see how we can come up with (and just have our eyes open) to how we can serve others. That's what it's ALL about! Clap! Clap! :)
