Holiday Fun

Since it's Noah's first Christmas, we let him touch, taste and crawl after a few ornaments.Noah made such funny faces when the branches touched the back of his head while we were taking pictures. He made the same funny faces today when he rolled onto an artificial wreath in the floor. Clearly he isn't fond of scratchy, artificial tree branches.
Kendal and Kelsey and their girlfriends from church enjoyed a Daddy Date Night last Friday night. Four dads and six young ladies piled in one van and went to the Norfolk Botanical Gardens to see the lights. Then they went to a very nice chocolate shop in downtown Va. Beach. It was supposed the be the night they sold Christmas trees together for our church's House of Blessing (where people in need can get groceries and help with their bills), but all the trees were sold out. Thankfully nearly $5,000 was earned for the needy. The dads took this opportunity to plan something else special with their eldest children. The girls are all in families of six or more children, so having a night "on the town" with Dad is very special.
Here are Kelsey, Kendal and Bob at the chocolate shop.
This is Erin and Steve Pollard.
This is Cailin and Lee Gwaltney.
And this is our pastor, Brad Shedd, Sophia and Olivia.
All the girls in front of the outdoor Christmas tree in Downtown Va. Beach.
Now that Noah is nearly eight months, wetried to take some professional looking photos of Noah in his first two bigger boy outfits. They don't look professional but some are really cute, we think.
