"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

Christmas Party!

We had a really fun Christmas Party at NTBI tonight! They really did a great job with it--everyone went to a ton of work setting it all up. Our kids had a blast! Halle was so excited for a chance to wear her favorite dress...it is perfect for spinning, which is one of her favorite things to do:)


Here are all the girls, ready to go. It was fun dressing them all up!


Here is my princess Halle, standing in front of the entrance:

The gym was decorated so pretty! Tons of Christmas lights...our kids loved it!


Everyone was supposed to dress in '40s attire (which we didn't do! A lot of people did, but we didn't:) ). Anyway, someone was randomly dressed as a snowman. It was really funny! Kaine and Halle were not too sure about this guy, but they still wanted to be in a picture with Frosty.


Such good buddies!


Layla and Aunt Jill:)


One really great thing about living in a building with tons of single college students is, there are always so many of them who want to help us out with our kids! We have had so many people entertain our kids and offer to babysit that we couldn't list them all. But here is Camilla, who has been a good help to us! Our kids love her:)


And Jessie, who sat and did a craft with Layla tonight. It was so nice of her! Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of Lanna, another friend of ours who ended up holding and entertaining Layla for almost the whole rest of the night... Lanna is Layla's teacher in her childcare class and Layla adores her! So, but anyway, here is Layla and Jessie. Thanks, Jessie!


Halle insisted on taking a picture of me and Daisy...Daisy wasn't liking it too much, though:)


What a fun night! Thanks, Campus Life department...you did a great job!
