Merry Christmas 2012

Christmas came and went so quickly this year.  It was impossible to believe that it was already time for Christmas, and now it is hard to believe that it is already over!  We had a very good Christmas and all the celebrations along the way were fun too.  The kiddos must have been very good this year because they got some great presents!

I think that our kids are much different than most because they love to sleep.  Even Mason seems to enjoy sleeping in and Christmas morning was no exception - we had to wake them up!  They always want to eat breakfast before opening presents, so we had some yummy waffles and bacon and then headed upstairs to open gifts.

We had a fun Christmas.  We all stayed in our pajamas all day long and played with new toys and games, took naps, and watched movies.  The only downside is that Micah has been sick for several days with a recurring fever, but as long as we try to keep the fever down he feels okay.  The kids were disappointed though because we had a decent chance of a good amount of snow, but it missed us.  However, the bitter cold did not miss us so the kids have not been able to try out their new scooters.  I'm quite sure that on the first remotely comfortable day, at least Maddie will be out there riding that scooter!

We have been blessed with another year together and we are so thankful for the memories that we make at Christmas time, but mostly thankful for the gift that God gave to US on Christmas!
