Live Nativity


Live Nativity


Our church (Lynchwood Church of God) has an annual live nativity each year. This year Ryan was a priest, in the scene when Jesus learns in the temple as a child.

Christmas socking

Yes I said "Sockings". Stockings are special to our family. The tradition started when my Granny cross stiched each greatgrandchild a stocking to fit their personality. Now Granny is with Jesus. But, Nana carries the tradition on (except she hunts one down in the stores or online). Luke received his very own this year. It has a train on it.

Luke:"Mommy, it's a sock".

Mom: "Kind of. It's called a stocking."

Luke: "A socking , Mom!!" he says very seriously "Not a stocking."

He procedes to put the "Socking" on and says he likes it.



The Children love to chase eachother from one end of the home to the other. Luke makes it fair by army crawling.

Gone Hunting


Ryan took Luke hunting a couple of weeks ago. They dressed up in hunting gear, took Luke's wooden rubberband rifle, and headed to Sandy River Delta to go "Goose Hunting".
A couple hours later the men return. Luke reports back: "We didn't see any gooses or ducks, Mom. Just labrador retrievers. Lots of labrador retrievers."
Luke would really like a lab some day. So every dog he saw, retrievers, pointers, setters, you name it, it was a "Labrador retriever".

Hat Girl

So I will tell you about "Hat Girl". Daphne has a special face. It only comes out when her daddy's hat goes on her head. Ryan has to take it from his head and put it on hers...then...Hat Girl! We all enjoy this face!
