I'm sitting at home, with a fire going and the rain pouring down catching up on a few things around the house and trying to figure out what gifts still need to be purchased and wrapped for Christmas. And when I say rain pouring down, I mean that it's just after lunch time and we've set a new record for the amount of rainfall today, and there is no sign of it stopping. The Nooksack River is flowing rapidly and approaching flood stage, roads are closed, and the words 'atmospheric river' are all over the news!
I must say, however, we've had a very nice fall! Annaliese played basketball for school and had a great season! She improved a lot and it was fun to watch the girls play. She played half the games on the 8th grade team and the other half on the 7/8 C team. I don't have very many pictures, but she was fun to watch!
We also celebrated her 14th birthday! Annaliese invited a group of friends to go bowling and then come back to our house for pizza and cake. They were a lot of fun to listen to and it was great to hear so much laughter!

And a few pictures from some of the other things we've done recently:

| Sleepover with Mallory |
 |
| Making Christmas wreaths |
 |
| Tried Shelby's Christmas sweater on Amarah... |

| We make it look like it's cold outside...it was actually very mild (almost 50* and no wind!) |
 |
