Memories while we wait for Christmas 2023



I sent a little goodie box to Presley and her roommate and they sent me a picture of them wearing their new "bow rings" for fun!  We are so thankful for their sweet friendship. 

Cashmere had their alumni game and Hailey van Lith gifted the boys and girls basketball teams with new Adidas shoes. 

Harper went with Mason and his family to Leavenworth to feed the reindeer and see the lighted trees. 


Ry and Emory went to a family Christmas party in matching jammies. 

We decorated the tree and Dave needed a little assistance to help Harper put the angel on top. 

Logan made us a couple of cocktails one night in Leavenworth. 

We watched lots of Hallmark Christmas movies, as well as Christmas Vacation and White Christmas. 


We were all able to spend a couple of hours together in Leavenworth. 



We used the hot tub, all of us ended up in there together on evening.
