Merry Christmas from the Burts!

Merry Christmas to all our friends and Family!
Sorry we didn't send out cards this year. But as you can read from previous posts, we are busy with our sweet Emily who's 8, Abby who is 6, and Ryan who is 16 months. Greg is still job searching and we know God will be faithful to provide like he's done in the past. Stephanie still homeschools while keeping Ryan out of trouble! We are so happy to visit Stephanie's family (15 in all!) in northern CA for Christmas. But we get a double blessing because Greg's parents will drive up to visit us as well. We will also see Greg's grandmother and uncle and family too. It'll be a busy but fun trip!
May you have a very blessed and merry Christmas as we celebrate the Savior's birth!

Walking and Crafting!

Snowflakes! An easy craft made from arranging q-tips in a snowflake pattern.Next, drop huge globs of glue at the intersections- making sure the q-tips touch. And sprinkle glitter all over the glue. Watch out for the glitter. It makes a mess but the result is very cool, pretty, and worth it! This is a very easy craft that the girls really enjoyed!
The first real snow of the season! The girls enjoyed playing and Ryan can't wait for the day when he can run around and play in it too!
Well, here's my boy! He finally started walking. But God forbid he take his thumb out of his mouth so that he can balance better!! He's climbing on the fireplace (and oh, so proud!) and keeping me busy!
