More from the beginning of December...

Beginning of December

December started out strong!  We got to sit in the President's Box to watch the APSU football game...the Govs lost but we had a great time!  Kathryn helped decorate the tree at her school.  Kathryn was inducted into the Science National Honor Society.  And, Madison and I are ready for Door Wars at work!  December is going to be FUN!!!!  

Christmas at the Luthers Home

We are decorated and ready for Christmas...I LOVE IT!  Just add Christmas Movies, Christmas Music, Christmas Candles, and Snuggles!  

Thanksgiving Weekend

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving!  We had 16 total over for lunch.  The kids ran and played while the adults had time to catch up.  We had a great meal!  After everyone was gone, we got the house decorated for Christmas.  I love this tradition of decorating on Thanksgiving evening.  

Black Friday was successful!  And, Kathryn got to experience it for the first time.  We all had a blast!  

The rest of the weekend was spent playing games (Monopoly...Kaden's fav and this card game he made up that he loves that we play every year with the Christmas music box) and just being together.  

I am so thankful for all these moments with my family!!! 

Mid November: Christmas Village, Basketball Practice, Starbucks, Kathryn's Church Retreat, Church, and More...

I rarely get to take Kathryn to school...so when I do...we definitely get Starbucks first...because it is a special time!  Kaden has been busy putting in work with his new basketball team...2 hour practices...and he is doing awesome!  I had my annual Christmas Village trip with my girls...as always we had a blast!  Kathryn went to KY with our youth group on a retreat...it was a special time of spiritual growth...I am so proud of her following Jesus so closely!!!  There is a throwback pic of Kaden and Winston...be still my heart!  Winston...rotten as ever.  And the last pic is of Kaden and Kyle at church this past Sunday...so so sweet!!!!!
