I know, Christmas was over weeks ago, but life is crazy and I'm just now getting to my Christmas photos. We had a nice quiet Christmas this year at home. It is so rare to have an entire day with everyone home-- not having to go anywhere! It was a treat to lounge around, play with all the fun new loot, eat yummy food, and visit with loved ones on the phone.
Our Christmas morning tradition is that the kids wait in their room until we (the parents) come and get them. This year they were up at 6:30, all waiting in the girls' room. I love hearing the giggles and excitement drifting from the room as they hear Greg and I get up and make our way to their room. Then we all walk out together and the magic begins...
The kiddos sporting their new luggage for our Germany trip! Woo hoo!
Kenna wondered how Santa watched her all year long and kept saying, "I hope Santa thought I was good enough to bring me toys!" Phew! She was and he did!
Jaren said family prayer on Christmas Eve. In his prayer he said, " Please bless that Santa can make it to our house safely. And I hope Jesus has a good birthday tomorrow-that he can spend some time with Mary." Oh this handsome boy melts my heart all the time!

New cozy jammies for everyone!

Just loved it! Hearing about your day and hope you have a journal somewhere to remember all those cute things.
