Merry Christmas!

The boys both liked seeing Santa, but they were annoyed with all of us telling them to say 'cheese'!! Santa's helpers were so concerned about the picture that boys didn't get to talk much to Santa. But he did ask them what they wanted and they said trains and cars. Afterwards, I asked Landon what he thought about seeing him and he said, "I thought he was lovely mom." :) Oh so polite when he wants to be! Liam said he would like to go back and see him again.

Today we made this gingerbread house as a family. It was just as much fun for us as it was for the kids. Kevin and are so excited about playing 'Santa' tonight. We are about to read a book to the boys about baby Jesus and drink some hot cocoa. Tomorrow we are going to put candles in our walnut bread (a delicious bread that Kevin's mom always makes for Christmas) and sing 'Happy Birthday' to Jesus.

I am so excited to be to this day and be home! Thanks for your prayers. We wish you a very Merry Christmas from our family to yours!
