Buried in the Snow

We have got SOOOO much snow lately! And it's been bitter cold! The kids were not listening or getting along so we gave the extra job of shoveling the front walk and driveway. After they did a pretty good job on the shoveling, we found them doing this.... Burying their brother in the snow. Oh Sibling Love!!!! ;)

Here's what our cars looked like after one storm:

Victoria's Ugly Sweater Song

mtseamonsfam Victoria's 5th grade class was awesome! They sang "Perfect Winter Day", "Go Tell it on the Mountain" & "Ugly Sweater". Her class rocked the 2 part harmony. Amazing! Love her smile! Thanks to Mrs. Nelson & Mrs. Holman for always doing a fabulous job putting these programs together. You ladies are the best!
ceveland14 (cheyloh) I LOVED their two songs of perfect winter and ugly sweater. I laughed pretty hard. They did so good!!!
hseedall So fun!! Great pictures

Glory's 3rd Grade Concert

Happy 40th Kris!

Christmas Crafting with Mrs. Sharbono

Marathon week of making crafts in Mrs. Sharbono's 3rd grade class. Fun times! This is when being a stay-at-home mom pays off. Hours of organizing & crafting. Just my cup of ☕️! So cute!

Other ones I helped with:
 Reindeer I glued together & added string beforehand:

Tree- I organized beads, cut and tied string on the rings I bought, made a sample and let them use star beads for the top instead.

Then I got to eat with these cute kids this week as well!

Justice 8th Grade Christmas Concert

Justice's last Christmas Concert @ MCS. He's been sick since last Wednesday so we were afraid he wouldn't make it. But miraculously he regained his voice enough in the last day & a half to play the trumpet. He did a great job! We love Mrs. Nelson. Her concerts are always so fun!

Here's the Traditional end to the MCS Christmas Concert- White Christmas with music by Justice's 8th grade band. "May all your Christmases be White!" ❄️

We love Shauna!

We love this little book that Aunt Shauna made us in 2004. It shares the Christmas story from the scriptures along with pictures and songs to sing. As a bonus it has a ABC poem about Christmas-y things. What a fun tradition! Thanks, Shauna! 😘 {Plus she sent us chocolate!!!!}

Scripture Reading- the Seamons Way!

We are pretty perfect about Family Scripture Study in our home. We haven't missed a night in over 20 years. (Seriously!) It has been a blessing in our lives for sure.
But let's be real------ it's not always accompanied with halos and an overwhelming, uplifting Spirit- this is a pretty decent picture of reality! Dad "resting" his eyes. Glory getting a back tickle while she reads from the iPod. Justice making faces. Victoria foot to back massaging her brother (or is she beating him with her foot?) Liberty sitting as far away as she can from the chaos. And Mom thinking we don't have to always read so many verses each night. It's reality people- but I'll keep them! 💗😘😘😘😘

Work Party in the Cold

Part of our family finished our marathon day at a work-ish party shindig. Thanks Maces for opening your home to everyone. Now time for the fireplace & some hot cocoa in my jammies! (❄️ Presently -24° with wind chill Brrrr! ) {Justice was sick and Liberty had to work}

25th Anniversary of Nutcracker

A little Nutcracker this afternoon. We had so many friends that were in it this year. Fun to support them all as a family. Way to go, all our gorgeous friends!

Congrats to our friends for a job well done. We were able to congratulate a few in person. Nutcracker 2016. Happy 25th Anniversary! (Mikal Fife is on the main poster. She played Clara! Her mom, Kris was in one of the 1st Nutcrackers here in Helena. She was able to dance in this one along with her younger daughter, Quinn as well.) We also knew Rebecca Wilkins, Tessa Coil, Genger girls, Hannah Caldwell to name a few.
P.S. For the 25th Celebration, they did a big dinner and Kid Candy Land. Liberty was able to work the night there with some of her friends!

Moana- Merry Christmas Glory!

For one of Glory's Christmas presents, she wanted to see the new movie Moana. So our whole family braved the -23° weather to take her to the theater. Merry Christmas baby!

1st Annual MT Ornament Party

1st Annual Montana Ornament Party! Inspired by one of my best friends, Amber @amberhoffman23 - I braved my first Ornament party since my move from Fargo. I tweaked things from years past. I made it very simple/ Everyone brought treats to share & we made an ornament together. I did a Montana-inspired Ornament that I think turned out pretty fun. Thanks ladies for braving the blizzard to join me. See you next year!
mtseamonsfam Thanks gorgeous, brave ladies for hanging out with me tonight! You're awesome! #annualornamentparty #blizzarddrivers
Special note- @hseedall is on the front row! 1st time for everything, my friend! Lol ❤️
hseedall Haha!! I have to admit I really liked the front row! Such a fun night with amazing women!

Dollar Store Christmas

Braving the Snow Storm to do our Annual Dollar store shopping. Everyone gets $5 to shop for the others in our family. We were pretty much the only ones there & the parking lot wasn't plowed at all!!! I think we got like 6-8 inches. Welcome Winter!

Concert Band Concert

Liberty had her Concert Band Performance tonight. They sounded great! Plus Liberty had quite some snazzy moves while she boogied to the Jazz Band music afterwards. Silly girl!
