Catching up...and Christmas highlights

Sorry for the lack of blog content for the last few weeks. Life here has been super busy. It seems like things just never slowed down after the Christmas Holiday. The last two weeks have included lots of trips to the bases for various appointments.

We decided to suck-it-up and put E and JB into Scouts and Cubs which threw our fine-tuned schedule out the window. This decision required us to make two additional trips into the bases (the closest one is 35 minutes away. On Scout day All I have to do is pick E up at Feltwell but on Cub days I have to pick up the little boys from school, drive to Feltwell, drop JB off and pick up M and E. Then I drive to Lakenheath (about 15 min.), pick up H,Cand get dinner, drive back to Feltwell for JB and then home. WHEW!!!

Anyway, we had a great Christmas and tried to do all of our traditional stuff. For the first time in ages we missed doing our family Nativity play (we were out delivering plates of Christmas goodies to some of the British families in the village) and Christmas just wasn't the same without it. We really missed it.

Here are some highlights.




JJ takes chocolate around the mouth to a whole new level.
