Getting Ready for Church

Had to post this cute picture from this morning of Oliver wearing his hat, sweater, scarf, and mittens from Great Grandma!

Frisch's

Oliver loves Frisch's. Probably all of the pancakes and bacon. Here's a recent pic that Sam took of us at Frisch's while messing around with his new phone.

Pics with the Straters

We had some family pictures taken with all of the Straters over break. Here are a few of the set. Some of them have been on facebook already, but I thought I would post here too.

Cute Cousins!

Gluten Free Pot Pie!

I just had to share this photo! I haven't had a pot pie in...well...years. This turned out great (although it was a lot of work). Sam even said, "It tastes just like a pot pie!"

Festival of Lights at the Zoo!

Here is our tree this year. Can't make the camera take a decent picture.














Oliver and I visited the Festival of Lights last night! Lots of cookies... candy....hot dog....all around junk food. The gingerbread man was not nearly as creepy this year. Oliver did ask why the reindeer were at the zoo and not riding with Santa...my answer: "Santa is at the zoo too--this is just where he parked the reindeer".

School!

Look what Oliver has learned at school...
