1st quiz tournament!

This past weekend our quiz team got to go to our first tournament. We had a blast! I'm proud to be showing you a Senior Intermediate Quiz Team from APC!!!! These kids rocked it! They took 3rd place!

I made them pose for some photos as it was starting to rain, but they were troopers.

About to start a quiz. . .

ooooh, tense timouts

Alex got his first trophy at this first tournament...I'm excited about how this year started out!
Here's the team...my heroes!!! Love you guys!

Christmas with the Z-man

These are from Christmas Eve night - it was so much fun watching Z open all his gifts. I think he had more gifts than everyone else combined. :) It's been a while since I've celebrated Christmas with a little one in the family...it was neat seeing Christmas through his eyes. Enjoy!

Opening his stocking

Wait there's more in there!

He was pretty good at ripping the paper off the gifts.

"Here, Pops, Merry Christmas!"

The All-Star

Zoe enjoying some of the paper.

"C'mon, Papa, hurry and put it together!"

I think he was calling Santa to say, "Hey, you forgot one!"

This boy loves puzzles...he wanted to do it right away!

He's a very spiritual boy...had to stop opening gifts so he could be baptized in Jesus name.

Then it was time for jammies...only he ran away before his mom could get them on him. But they made for some really cute pictures.

Givin' Nana some Christmas kisses.
I hope everyone had a good Christmas holiday! Having family all together makes the holidays so special. I'm thankful for each of my family members...those that I got to spend Christmas with and those I had to do without this year. Love ya'll...have a blessed New Year!
