Christmas 2025

We had another nice, laid back Christmas with family. Cadence got a bunch of beauty products and Colin got a bunch of clothes. Oden had fun with all of the boxes and wrapping paper.

I LOVE our new pre-lit tree from Costco. Wish I would've gotten one sooner! Only downside is there's not as much surface area (it's a thinner tree than our old one), but it took a fraction of the time to put it together!

Waiting to see what's under the tree!

What's in my stocking?!

Grandpa and Auntie Gail were in town to celebrate with us!

 

December's Here

December is always a busy month with school wrapping up and Christmas. We jumped right in after Thanksgiving. Take a peek!

We started the holiday season with Colin's Christmas band concert. Always impressed with what they learn in just over 3 months at school!

Oden loves scoping out the warm spots in the house in the cold months!

The sun sets so early in December - this was one pretty sunset on my way home from work when hopping onto 670.

Cadence and I did a Christmas craft as part of presents this year. We made ornaments using ribbon and a cinnamon stick! They turned out really cute -- and smelled good, too!

Gosh, he's so cute. Especially when he's looking festive.

This house looked straight out of National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation -- we passed it on the way to the Rileys' house.

We spent the weekend before Christmas in Hamilton. It was fun to see everyone and the kids had a good time with their cousins. 

We made them recreate the photo on the stairs from 2018!

We got a really good photo of the whole Schuerman group!

Danny randomly started stretching in the middle of the living room, so everyone had to get involved 😂

Annual Trip to Campus and Thanksgiving

Dad tagged along with us on our annual Project "Ayhe" on campus. The Buckeyes pulled off a W this year against that pesky team up north, so we're not bad luck after all! 

Dad happily took part in the mischief! I'm so proud 😜

Buckeye Grove

I did so much better this year. Danny got talked into donating at the last second and, well, he didn't fare so well. He passed out! A large coffee before donation will do that to you!

Pinterest come to life, by Cadence!

Look what Brutus did!! 😂

I caught the kids on camera playing in the snow with the Riley boys during a snow day on December 2nd. It was a hardcore snowball fight!
