Merry Christmas to All!

Our Christmas was not "normal" but it was fantastic none-the-less! We woke up Christmas morning at my parents house. We all gathered in my parents' bedroom (like we did every Christmas morning when I was a kid) and listened to the Christmas story. We joined together singing "Happy Birthday" to Jesus.


The kids waited on the stairs while Dad and Grandma got ready with cameras and video. They were so excited to see what Santa had brought and if he ate their cookies...

Macey got a new easle (which all three kids are LOVING!)...

Kinnick got a train table which he enjoys having in his room...

And Sadie was THRILLED to find this Rupunzel doll with matching dresses for her and Macey. Rupunzel now goes everywhere along with Sadie's bear, Emma.






The kids had so much fun opening and playing with their new presents:













They also loved digging into their stockings:













We had red & green donuts for breakfast and headed off to church. After church Jadyn and Jaren came over to play for awhile. We spent the rest of the day relaxing and playing with our new stuff. We ended our day with ice cream sundaes.










The day after Christmas we enjoyed some more family time with all of my brothers and sisters... more yummy food, more presents, more laughing and hugs.
