Holidays 2022

The month of December was jam packed with holiday fun! The days were exhausting, but worth the memories!

Each kid had a band concert....Joel's was his first one and they did great!

Lamont cookie day made a return for the first time since 2019! We had a blast...despite having to leave Caleb home with the flu :(

It's been so great to finally be back to volunteering at holiday parties. The 5th graders got to take over the gym for their party. It was loud and crazy, but oh-so-fun!

We got in our annual Hanukkah dinner and had such a great time eating some of our favorite Jewish foods....especially the potato pancakes! The kids had fun handing out their gifts to the adults and the adults, as always, loved seeing what was chosen for them.

Alex, our sweet neighbor, was thrilled to get in on the Hanukkah action one night!

We had a blast doing our annual Reindeer Games with the Rojas crew. We also had fun doing our traditional neighborhood scavenger hunt.

The kids were in school right up until the weekend of Christmas. It felt like so many traditions went by the wayside because of how busy that kept us, but we definitely made sure to sneak in some cookie baking! The neighbor kids joined us and we had a great time.

We celebrated Christmas Eve by going to church and having dinner at TiTi's house. Christmas morning was celebrated at our house. That night, we loaded up a giant meal and headed to a homeless shelter about an hour away to deliver a special Christmas dinner. We came home and enjoyed a delicious gas station pizza dinner from Casey's!

After a week of Christmas and birthday celebrations, we wrapped up the holiday festivities with a wonderful trip out to Indiana to visit with our "Florida friends". We had so much fun catching up and ringing in the new year together!
