Happy Birthday Mom!!!

Mom's birthday is on Christmas, so it's usually not very special, like normal birthdays are. This year we surprised her with birthday cake. We made it while she was Christmas shopping and hid it before she got home. After Christmas dinner, we gave it to her. She was very surprised, and even started crying. It was a success. Happy birthday mom. We love you!

Merry Christmas everyone!!

Christmas Shopping

The twins love shopping. (Joseph-front, Ben-back)

Wise Men

On Sunday night our church had a Christmas Program.

In it Timothy, and Micah were two of the wise men.

Here are some pictures.

The babies first Christmas program

Last night, the babies were in their very first Christmas program. Before the actual play started the toddlers said John 8:12 and sang "Away In A Manger". I could only get a little bit of the song because my camera died. :( (Ben is on the left and JoJo is on the right.)

Benjamin (baby preacher) saying John 3:16

Butchering Chickens

Micah got ambitious and bought laying and meat chickens. Now his meat chickens are big enough to butcher. He butchered several a few days ago. Some parts were rather gross, but I thought Micah's reaction was funny.

CUTTING OFF THE HEAD

PLUCKING OFF THE FEATHERS PULLING OUT THE GUTS (yuck!) THE FINISHED PRODUCT

Jesse and Micah - Jesse thought it was cool and Micah was grossed out. :)
