(This is Evelyn at the Christmas tree decorating for the kids at church last weekend.)
Oh! The sadness of a neglected blog! Alas. I have been very busy and too tired to be inspired to write. Can it be December already? It's been a month since my last post. My apologies to the four of you who read it. Hahahaha.
What can I say? The kids are growing so fast. I'm still 40. I'm still fighting the clutter. And winning at the moment I think. Things are getting better in that department. I've hired a decluttering/life coach/therapist who is coming tomorrow to meet with me and help me get back on track. I'm excited about that! And Todd and I have an overnight date on Thursday night which should be a nice break. I hate leaving the kids but I know I need a break. Just time to take a breath and do one thing at a time.
Catching up on our November: We had a church mission center conference in Portland November 7 and 8th. It was good to be with our friends from around the Northwest and feel spiritually connected. The kids did great although I know its hard on them; long days and hotel beds. Actually, they love the hotel part! Here's a picture of the cuties sacked out in our hotel room. They are getting so grown up and enjoying each other as siblings more and more. It is fun to watch.

Evelyn received a wonderful gift from Todd's Aunt Ann; a wooden doll high chair that she'd had for many years. Evelyn knew exactly what to do with it. She went and got her dolls and sat them in it and fed them. It was adorable! She is enjoying it still. Thank you Aunt Ann!
Here are some pictures of decorating the "kids tree" at our congregation in Renton. Our friend Judy and her two kids helped. Finley adores Veronica and Brock and they are great to play with him.
