New Church: God has led our family to NMPC and we are thrilled! We began visiting in August, participated in a "new members" class for 6 weeks and then our family, along with many others, joined on Dec. 5th.
LG FPD Solo: We were thrilled to find out that LG had "auditioned" for a solo in the FPD Christmas Program. She didn't tell us she auditioned, so, we were pleasantly surprised when I got a call from her music teacher stating LG had gotten the part! There were two performances and she sang beautifully...we were so proud! For a little girl who didn't want to walk into her pre-K class to being on stage singing in front of hundreds on strangers in a microphone is amazing! LG, you are truly a blessing to us! We love watching you transform.
Jesus' Birthday: We had a wonderful time celebrating Jesus' birthday this year. Santa delivered a trampoline to our house & the girls absolutely love it. Daddy has already done front & back flips & Honey has even jumped with the girls! H, P & UP joined us for lunch and as I went to get the turkey out to fry that morning, it was f.r.o.z.e.n. solid. I had defrosted it for THREE days in the frig, oh, well, maybe next year. Thankfully H & P had bought a honey baked ham, so all was well. The girls then opened Christmas part 2 from H & P! That night we ventured to the W's for some more celebrating & eating! The cousins love getting to see each other.
Baptism: On Dec. 26th, LG & MJ were baptized by our pastor, Hunter Stevenson at NMPC. This was such an amazing day for our family! He came to our house earlier in the week to discuss baptism with our family and explain to the girls what would take place. They both did beautifully. I will never forget MJ walking up to the baptismal and getting on her tip toes to look in and see the water. On the way back to their seats, MJ said, "Honey, I have some water in my shoe!" To have NMPC's members take a vow to assist us as parents in the Christian nurture of our girls is truly a blessing!
