Christmas at Home in Platte 2013

 Winn Dixie got to wear the dress this year!



Corbin got the opportunity to help light the advent candles.


On one of our shopping trips Elias got on his "shoes" and we headed out to the store.  When he was hopping out of the van, this was the sight I saw.
Christmas Eve morning Joel and I were up until 5 sewing and cutting wood and making all kinds of gifts.
The boys loved their a-frame tents!
Can't forget the stockings!  Socks bursting out the top :)
 
We had a good first Christmas in our new home.
Christmas Eve service at 5 pm and then we headed up to Thief River.
