Christmas Pageant Practice

Some pictures from the Christmas Pageant practice at St. Anne's Sunday morning.

This is a little bit of a new gallery style using Adobe Lightroom so it may cause some viewing issues.

Christmas Morning

Pictures from Christmas Morning. Santa was good as he always is.

Reindeer Oats and Carrots

Christmas Eve isn't complete until the little children (Gabby) make sure that Santa and his reindeer get fed. Here Gabby and her mom make sure the reindeer oats get Santa to the house.

Also, Gabby had to make sure Santa and his reindeer found food at our house.

Christmas Eve at St. Anne's

Pictures from Christmas Eve Mass at St. Anne's in Chassell.

My 1/2 Day In Kindergarten

Pictures from the Kindergarten Christmas Party at Houghton Elementary. Mrs. Gillis had an extra helper today and he's going to keep his day job. After just three hours, I was spent.

The day started with Santa visiting the children for breakfast. We read some books, played games, ate some good food, went to gym (break time for the helper), opened stockings, and had recess.

Afterwards, this helper had a nap. There is not a better way to spend the Friday before Christmas than with a class of Kindergarten children.

Houghton Elementary Kindergarten Concert

Color In The Snow

Old Fashioned Christmas came to Chassell on Saturday. The only pictures recorded here were of some fall color trying to stick around for winter.

Christmas Decorating

Gabby was very excited to start Christmas decorating with Mom.

Our Newest Priest

The Diocese of Marquette has a new priest. Father Dan Moll celebrated mass at St. Anne's in Chassell this Sunday and these are some pictures from this morning's mass and breakfast social afterwards.

5-Year Old, A Sled, and Snow ...

...equals fun. Here's Gabby playing in the snow with her new sled.

It's Only Wind

We found a group of trees on Des Rochers Road knocked down by the wind. They must have shared the same root system.

Snow At Whitecaps

The Snow is always beautiful on Lake Superior. These pictures were taken hours prior to the start of our next winter storm.
