Christmas is just around the corner!!!
So the snow had been melting, but this morning we awoke to a fresh dusting! We're hoping it keeps up at least until Christmas! Everything is moving along as usual. We have all been variously sick. I'm trying to get over a cold that just keeps lagging on. The belly is starting to pop out, though! OH the joys of heartburn!! We go Friday for the first ultrasound to see how big this baby is and get a better date of delivery.
Last weekend we went to get our Christmas tree and that was an adventure! You know, if I had seen my parents pick out a tree like the one we got, I would have thought they were having issues and didn't know that Christmas trees should be big and full and thick!!! Ours is more like a large version of Charlie Brown's, but it fits. Althea is very excited about decorating the tree, especially with all the "ornaments" they have been making at school. She's also singing every Christmas song known to man!! We've had alot of Jingle Bells, Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, We Wish You a Merry Christmas, etc. The list does go on.... and on! We also did some sledding in our back yard, as we have an awesome hill complete with a bench at the top! Althea tried on her skiis for the first time and we helped her down the hill. She thought that was great!
Sandpoint is looking very festive, as they decorated the whole entire town with lights and big stars. It's really beautiful.
Rich is wrapping up the last few days of school before the break. You can tell everyone is ready to go!

Mandy, Rich, Althea,
Hope you all are doing well. I got the pics of the "little critter." Awesome. So neat to see your little bundle laying there sucking its thumb. Hope you are ready for another New Year. It certainly going to be a very interesting year.
Love Dad
