Entertaining Karis

Ella and Juju love to make Karis smile.

Christmas Fun!

Leading up to Christmas we had several visits with close friends.

The Reeds came over for dinner and a kids pajama party. 

Karis and Hailey even wore matching sleepers! Since our family has no candidates for Hailey to marry, we figure she should grow up to be great friends with our girls :)

 On Sunday we enjoyed a French toast brunch at Roger and Helen's. Delicious food and great company!

Here's Karis getting all geared up for her first Christmas. Juliette was pretty disappointed that she didn't have a reindeer outfit to match Karis. 

We also visited with our dear friends Sean and Moo. 

Ms. Moo sewed the girls their own aprons! They are adorable and the girls love them. 

The aprons stayed on until bedtime.

Karis is 6 months old!

Our sweet Karis is 6 months old today. She is happy, healthy, and sleeping well. We are so blessed to have her in our family.

Let it Snow!

On Wednesday morning we woke up to a winter wonderland. We headed out to Superstore to buy a sled. The snow is all gone now, but the girls are hoping for some more soon (and so are we)!

Life Group Christmas Party

Last week we had a potluck Christmas party with our life group. It was fun to bring the kids and have a social event. 

Karis and her friend Eli. They are born only 3 days apart and have all the same moves, they looked like they were in a yoga class.

Juju and Moriah.

All the kids eating at the "kiddie table". Ben, Jacob, Moriah, Ella and Juju. The next day Ella said "I love coming to Bible study".

Christmas Fun

Excited for the Christmas concert!

The Lafleur 5.. Juju wasn't into having her picture taken and so she opted for the closed-eye look.

The bigger our family gets, the harder it is to find a picture where everybody has their eyes opened.

After church we went for lunch with Grandpa Rob, Grandpa Clark, and Grandma Jo-Ann. Grandpa Clark is not pictured, he was in time-out for throwing things around at the table.

Fun with Grandma Jo-Ann

Grandma Jo-Ann came to visit us this weekend. The girls loved spending time with her and were sad when she wasn't here when they woke up this morning. 

It snowed while Grandma was here, so we bundled up and went for a walk.

Grandma also helped bake some shortbread cookies

"What is this trendy looking bench that Ella and Karis are sitting on? I didn't know the Lafleurs owned such nice furniture."

When Grandma was in town we made a bench seat for our new storage unit. It looks great! She also helped us make some new curtains. Thank-you Grandma Jo-Ann!
