A Few Holiday Pictures

Happy Holidays!  We've enjoyed the relaxed nature of the last few days.  Here are a few photos:

Note the new, shiny mouthpiece on this trumpet.  That's a happy trumpet player!

Check out the girl and her wheels!  It was about 10 degrees F out, but she still wanted to go skate!

Silly faces and our stockings:

For the record, it was only the grown-ups who had veggie houses (but snitched candy anyway).  The kids all made graham cracker houses.  I think there are only one or two walls left of all the houses we made!
