Pre-Christmas pics

Before I bombard you with Christmas pictures, I thought I'd post a few random pictures from before Christmas. Sadly, I did not document Von's first Thanksgiving very well. I started to, but we hosted two other families and the day did not end until hours after Von went to bed, so with the craziness, I only got these two pictures of him with Daddy.

 Just before Christmas, our dear friend Thomas was in town. Von absolutely loved his time with Uncle Thomas, who is great with him and knows just how to make him laugh and squeal.

 Here is Von with my two voice students. He loves to hang out during their lessons--singing along and playing and being adored by these sweet girls. On this Sunday, which was the Sunday after the Newtown school shooting, they sang a beautiful Christmas duet of hope in Christ's birth. I was so moved and so proud of their hard work!

 And finally, here is a video of Von laughing. Papa was dancing in the kitchen during Von's dinner, which delighted him to no end.
