Silly girls

 Plate queens!

Some Christmas ice cream

Hiking/sitting

“ Pishure!”

It was a one mile hike, needed lots of breaks

Christmas

Ready for Mass!

She’s carefully unwrapping candy

 

Hike

 Perfect hiking weather last weekend!

Helen is silly

 Oh look she can open the computer, great

We can throw ping pong balls

She would like to see her picture

She is devoted to nursing 3 times a day and we have to have all 4 babies just right on top of her 

Phone calls

 During the rosary, Helen thinks she should call people

So she can hear the rosary through the phone too

Being the baby is AMAZING 

Missoula library

They convinced me to try the wind tunnel

Helen and Bee had to be evacuated 

 

Some silly riders

 

Portraits

 All during church, she wanted me to take her picture, but she had to wait until after

Nora made her a tiara

Adventure with Helen

 Helen had to go to the ER

They hooked a sticker on her finger

She wants to take the pictures

After they took her blood, she believed it was time to leave 

We ordered food. She’s fine! We came home.

Junkel Restaurant

 For our anniversary, Lucy headed the Junkel Restaurant. She and James cooked, Nora and Tessa and Max served, Isi took our coats, and Bernadette took a coat and sneaked back for hugs

Helen is silly

 

Max is 8!

Max had a Winnie the Pooh cake with his buddies

And for his birthday, we went ice skating

It was Bernadette’s first time and she loved it

Isi made a friend and learned to skate without the aid

Max likes the aid

But he tried without it

Even Bee tried holding a hand 

And Max skated all the way around holding my hand
