Well, we have making it loud down perfectly... It is a gift to have so many musicians in our home, rejoicing and singing praise to God!

Vivian (on drums): is in Kindergarten, loves every moment she gets on horseback, and practices drumming even when she isn’t supposed to...

Tiernan (on violin): wants me to tell you all about the intricacy of his custom lego builds - they are incredibly detailed!

Graiden (on violin): is our third teenage driver on the road and loves flying his drones in the air!

Leighton (on keyboard): is playing for the church praise team and we’re all looking up to him... as he just passed 6’1”!

Lorien (on cello): is a high school senior and is applying to colleges for advanced mathematics. We can’t wait to see where she goes next fall!

Matt (leading man): loves scripture, is pastoring in Prairie City and coaching churches on discipleship across the country.

Kat (leading lady): is managing a paramilitary operation just homeshooling, feeding, and organizing all these people! She is also still creating portrait art - including these family portraits!

Merry Christmas!

from Matthew, Katherine, Lorien (17) Leighton (15), Graiden (14), Tiernan (11), and Vivian (6) McClure 2023
