Around The Home
I have a bunch of pictures to share from this week! I guess I felt the need to take a picture of every moment! We got a good snow storm this weekend, which made it feel like a snow globe in central MN this weekend! I hesitated my ability to make it out of the driveway for church, and as I went to go start the van, I saw we had a flat tire. I know the basics of changing a tire, but did not trust myself to do it on my own, so I decided just to stay home. I think I was just not meant to go (Dan was already there for worship practice).
Here is what our week looked like:
Love our nightly cuddles before bedtime!
Daddy was working from home at night and Mazy wanted to be just like her daddy!
Mazy LOVES her dolls! She is proud of her belly, so she wanted to make sure dolly saw it too!
What a sweet little mother she is!
SUCH A GOOD BOOK – The Magnolia Story (from your favorite Fixer Upper peeps!)
Mazy already enjoys chores and keeping things tidy – throwing away things is a fun activity for her!
Can’t wait to add Mazy to our tally competition that is 4 years ongoing
She still loves to wear stickers on her face – so hard to take her serious in anything she says when she has a sticker stuck to her face!
Night time snuggles with daddy
Got to sneak away for a few hours to work on the book at a local coffee shop, thanks to a friend who so generously watches her!
Saturday night we went to the Celebrate the Lights activities. Sadly though, 2 hours after we went on this carriage ride, the horses spooked and ran about a mile down the road with people in the carriage. They ran into a driveway where the carriage caught a basketball pole and hoop, that struck the driver. The driver was unresponsive when police arrived, but was revived and is now in critical condition. Passengers were taken to the hospital, but with minor injuries and were released. Thinking of all of those involved!
That could have been us in there when the horses spooked. The family opens up their home and gives countless hours of their time to make moments like this, so memorable for families!
They even open up their home for children to make Christmas cookies and take a picture with Santa in their very own living room. Challenged us to realize that what we have is for us to share!
Mazy’s favorite part was putting on the sprinkles!
It was a very brisk night with friends touring the lights, and now a somber memory, knowing what happened hours later. Thank you to the families who put so much towards this and for the community for supporting such a beautiful event!
