We Wish You A Merry Christmas...

As Christmas Day comes to a close, our family hopes that you all had a VERY Merry Christmas!! It's all of you that help to make this season so special. But most of all we are thankful for our Savior, Jesus Christ who was born this day. I just wanted to share what KJ said in his prayers tonight.
He said, "Heavenly Father, can you please tell Jesus Happy Birthday for me? And tell Him that I love Him very much. And also, tell Santa that I'm so proud of him for all the stuff he brought us. I must have been a really good boy this year!" Only from the mouths of babes! At least he did remember the 'reason' for all the celebrating, as it tends to get lost from time to time during the hustle of this busy season.

We hope your Christmas was full of hidden treasures.....
(Olivia sure found some!)

And lots of fun surprises.....

We hope you weren't a 'scrooge' this year.....

That you had lots of silliness & laughter.....

Very little fighting....

Most of all, we hope your day was shared with those you love most....

Here are some snapshots of some 'magic' that we had this Christmas! Christmas is so magical in the eyes of children and I'm glad we are lucky enough to be able to experience it!

We had our traditional Christmas Eve Dinner and Program at my mom's house. KJ and I played a duet on the piano, Jack sang a song, and Olivia did her ballet routine with her cousin! Santa even showed up with a gift for each child! After we got home, we opened our Christmas PJ's and the kids settled down in hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there!
