First…a
little about us:
Our Favorite Things:
Craig: teaching math (some
days more than others), online games of Risk, playing with the kids, time with
Jif, and anything on ESPN.
Jif: Homeschooling (some
days more than others), Community Bible Study (best thing we do all week), time
with Craig, and hot tea…to start and end the day.
Jake: His new ipod, his
dog Bo, playing xbox with friends, playing basketball (that’s new for him), pizza,
In and Out burgers and milkshakes, and Duck Dynasty.
Carly: Time with friends…or her brother…or her
parents…or anyone, horseback riding, surfing, any unhealthy microwavable food, anything with sugar in it, and Duck Dynasty.
Things we’ve learned
this year:
Craig: Life isn’t always like math…there aren’t
always solutions.
Jif: The most important
thing to nurture in the kids…a love for the Lord and for others.
Jake: Doing what mom or dad asks the first time is
always better than what comes after not doing it.
Carly: Make sure you add
water when microwaving macaroni and cheese.
Common things heard around the house:
Craig: Don’t mess with the
DVR…I am recording the USC game or the Steelers game, or the Yankees game...
Jif: What?
Dinner? Didn’t I just feed you
people?
Jake: Mom…sorry I couldn’t
come do the dishes, my clan was having a meeting. (Jif: “You have a clan?” Jake: “Yeah…on Clash of Clans”)
Carly: Can I go to Justine’s? Can I go to Amber’s? Can you call and see if Madi can come over?
Here’s a link to our
favorite Christmas song, by Third Day:
Our
Christmas wish for you all:
That
you would know how much Jesus loves you, what His coming to earth…pouring out
His grace...means for you, and that you would know His peace and His presence now
and always.
Merry Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year!
Love,
The Adnams Family
Craig, Jennifer, Jake (14) and Carly (10)
