WAY Back in January...

Life has been so busy in the Adams' household, I haven't blogged in ages! WAAAAAAAYYYYY back in January we were having quite a bit of fun! We did a lot of 'snowy' themed art and play, went on an awesome field trip and enjoyed a fun dress up night at Awanas. Here is a glimpse of some of the things we did...


We enjoyed some fun black and white snowy art.  :)






Faithy made a cute snow family picture and practiced writing all of our family names on the circles.


I LOVE that she drew each of our faces so differently!


We also got to go on an awesome field trip to see the Chinook Helicopters with our homeschool group!






The kids loved it!


One of our sweet friends had a birthday and I got to make her fun artist's cake.  :)


We did another fun snowman project with marshmallows...and of course we had to eat some too.


Joy and Joshua got to dress up as snow people for a theme night for Awana. They were so cute!




Joshua spent many days playing with the dominoes and making all sorts of shapes and designs to knock down...




We got a few more snow flurries...


The kids always love to sit at the window and watch it fall down, it's so pretty.  :)



It was fun for awhile, now we are praying that spring will come quickly! We are so tired of the cold! Hopefully it will be here soon.  :)

Happy Birthday Faith Elaina!

Faithy had a wonderful birthday celebration this weekend! She's one happy 4 year old!



Her only requests for her party were that it be 'Jessie' themed (from Toy Story), 
that all of the kids from Bible study would be invited...


That we have popcorn and juice pouches...


Applesauce....


And "fruit on a stick"...


Here she is playing 'Pin the tail on Bullseye'.  :)





And of course, she had to have a 'Jessie' cake!



Our beautiful birthday girl...


How did she get to be 4 years old already?


It feels like just yesterday she was this adorable chubby little baby...


She's growing up too fast!  :(


At the end of the day, all snuggled in her new 'Jessie' pj's she declared, 
"It was my best birthday ever!"


So....Mission Accomplished! :)

LOVE

I HAVEN'T BLOGGED SINCE CHRISTMAS!! To say my life has been busy would be an understatement! But.... I will make time to update the blog soon because we've been doing some very fun things over here at the Adams house and I know the Grandparents can't stand the blog silence any longer! I think I have about 500 pictures to go through that I've taken since Christmas, LOL! It's not happening tonight...but soon.

To our family and friends back in the States...WE MISS YOU TONS! And I'll leave you with one of my new favorite pics. I thought it was fitting since Valentine's day is just around the corner and LOVE is something to celebrate everyday! I sure LOVE these kiddos, aren't they SUPER cute!!!?


"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is LOVE."

Christmas Eve Continued...

After our fun day in the snow, we had a little Christmas Eve party with several of our good friends. We sang Christmas songs, played some Christmas Trivia and Christmas Charades, ate lots of dessert... including a birthday cake for Jesus, and of course...read the Christmas story from the Bible. It was a fun time!

Little Christopher LOVED watching Peter play the guitar and sat just like that for quite awhile!


A few of the guys...
Then after everyone left, we let the kids each open one present, as is our tradition on Christmas Eve. It's always new pajamas and something we all look forward to!






The Awesome Adams Kids!
This year we invited three of our friends who are here in S. Korea with us to join our family for Christmas. Since they were staying the night, they had to have new pajamas too....it's Tradition! And since they were staying with the Adams family for Christmas, they were subjected to ALL of our traditions! :)


Later in the night I put the guys to work...they were my 'elves' building toys for Christmas morning...all sporting their new pajamas too!  :)



Then they had to test them out of course...





Finally everything was finished and set up for the morning.  :)
