Jeff made this beautiful oak hope chest for Emily for Christmas. She was so excited. They picked out the style together and talked about it for a long time. He was worse than her and was up before anyone else on Christmas morning so he could get it under the tree. It was so sweet!

Here is another picture of the kids at our Christmas program. The little ones came on the stage next. They said parts and did a great job, too. I don't think I have any pics of it. I am a horrible picture taker.:)

This pic is blurry, but it's Travis having the coveted part of "Joseph" of which he was very proud.:)

The kids are doing all sorts of things in 4-H and are loving it! One of them is volleyball. They are having a tournament against another 4-H homeschool group tomorrow. I'll have to take some pics and post them.

We also joined a co-op that does unit studies and the kids are having a blast making all kinds of stuff. We are studying frontier life and resourcefulness right now. It is interesting and informative. Well, I'll write later.
