The Smith Family Christmas

We started the 3 gift tradition this year. Each kiddo gets a gift in each of the categories:

1. Faithbuilding
2. Functional
3. Fun

Christmas always becomes a crazy time for us and this was one little way to simplify and embrace the real meaning of the season.

This is how we do Christmas breakfast!

Parents of Three

We started a bible study this fall with three other couples from Grace - each of which also have 3 kids. It has been such a blessing!

Here, the guys are working on a shed we put up for a neighbor as a way to give back.

A fall trip to the zoo

We didn't get to the zoo all summer...but took advantage of this gorgeous November day and had a blast!

3 little "Boo's" for you!

Sweet Savannah

Savannah has been a trooper through all the chaos of back to school! She just goes with the flow regardless of where we drag her off to!

She is jabbering a mile a minute and climbing on everything she can get her feet on. She wants to be in the middle of the action and takes in every little thing her big brother and sister say or do. Dylan is great about taking her for rides in his mustang and she thinks she is big stuff changing the radio station or checking her make up in the review mirror! 

Springboro Football

We took a quick trip to Cinci to see Grandma and Grandpa since D had a couple extra days off school. As luck would have it, the Springboro football game was rain delayed to Saturday so we were able to go! As you can see...the boys enjoyed their own game on the field after the game.

Grandma with her girls:



Gymnastics

Sierra started Gymnastics and LOVES every minute. I love seeing her strut herself out there! She just beams with pride...priceless!

Flag Football

  Dylan had his first Flag Football game Saturday. Go Patriots! Dylan had a blast and scored two Touchdowns. Brian is helping coach - I am not sure who is more into it...Brian or Dylan!

Sierra Starts Preschool

Sierra's First Day of LeapFrog Preschool

Sierra could not have loved her 1st day of LeapFrog preschool anymore. This is her friend Melia from gymnastics who we were pleasantly surprised to see in class. We ended up at this preschool by default..the one we wanted to put her in was full. But as always, God's plans are perfect and LeapFrog is a perfect fit for Sierra. They only have a handful of kids so she is getting hands on attention from her teacher which is a huge thing for this little girl.

I am simply amazed at how much this sweet girl has matured over the last few months. I am so proud of her and excited for the beautiful person God is helping her to become! LOVE HER!

Dylan started all day kindergarten this year at Parkview. So far his only complaints have been being exhausted and the noisy bus ride :) He has a wonderful teacher, Mrs. Carpenter, and has seen several of his friends at school. I'm so proud of my little guy for always being a good sport and going with the flow.
