December, 2019

December brought Jack's 5th grade trip to Keystone Science School for Eco-Week:


It was his first time away from home without family. After one long day of a snowy hike and cold/wet feet, Jack got sick and spike a fever. Thankfully there were teachers who took good care of him and nursed him back to health!

December also brought a visit to California as we went back to celebrate Uncle Russ' life after he passed of cancer. Long days of travelling led to another Josie sleeps anywhere pic:



The kids were excited to meet cousins: 

It was so fun to see the cousins together



We also had a chance to visit with Mema:


And my cousins: 

Josie got into a picture war with Acacia and Brad:


Group shot, good to be together despite the sad circumstance: 


We also made time to visit with Luke's family:


And go out to Korean BBQ



Back at school, it was a month of festivities. Including a whole-school assembly where all the kids received free teddy bears: 




A special visitor from the Executive Director of our school's authorizer:


Holiday sweater day:




And breakfast with Santa:








Josie falls asleep anywhere, even making a sticker puzzle:


We also hosted the teacher holiday party at our house (Luke took the kids bowling for the night):







The teachers had a blast playing VR


And Just Dance:







They partied until the kids came home, and then we partied some more:



Until Josie and Daddy fell asleep:



We had a generous donation of 5,000 books to start our school library. Luke rented a truck and drove 5 hours to pick them up, this is only half of the books:
