The Holidays

So as usual, I am behind on posting. It has been a busy, but wonderful couple of months. Here are some pictures from December/early January. Hawaii pics to follow soon (hopefully).

Mike and the freezer-filler.

Micaiah helped by labeling packages of moose. This sweet one also reads: "Mommy, Daddy, and Micaiah (on the back). Daddy shot this moose". He also labeled one as a Christmas present for his little friends that live in Washington.

The boys sharing a little "brotherly love" during the Christmas season.

Logan debuting his winter formal wear (ie: Daddy's shorts). As it turns out, a drawstring can double as suspenders.

Decorating gingerbread cookies

Logan's gingerbread cookies (With our allergies we are very limited in what we can put on them. They also don't hold their shape very well with a whole lot of nothing in them, but they do taste good, and the boys love them.)

Micaiah's gingerbread cookies. On this plate is "a fish, a Christmas tree, a halibut, Cinderella, and Swiper the Fox covered in noodles".

One of the sweetest things that happened on Christmas, was when we went looking for Logi and found him snuggled in a corner by the tree, slowly flipping through the book Grammy Henry so lovingly made for them before she passed away.

The brave knights ready for battle in their new armor.

The boys building together with their new Legos.

Their creations

Micaiah with his incredible remote-control flying shark.

Grandpa John getting skewered.

Bedtime stories with Grandpa.

The boys with Grandpa John and Grandma Robin.

The Henry Boys

Boisterous Boys in Bow Ties

A few weeks ago, Micaiah insisted on wearing a bow tie to church. Upon hearing his big brother, Logan became adamant that he too, wear a tie. When I finally got them wrangled into their clothing and their hair tamed, they were too cute not to snap a few pictures. Here is their little photo shoot. The first one reminded us of this old photograph of Mikey and his big brother Nathan, so I included it too, just for fun. Bow ties... one of the many joys of raising boys.
