We really enjoyed Christmas together! We missed seeing more of our extended family, but we had a great time here at home!
We opened our stockings then had breakfast before opening the presents under the tree.
Here are Lexie & Joseph with the 4 flashlights in their stockings.

We got some really fun presents this year. Joseph wanted to line out all of his favorite presents (all of them). He loves the science kit he got. He can already tell you all about the different clouds in the sky. It was funny on our way down to dinner with my sister, I asked him what kind of clouds were in the sky right now & he said cirrus ("serious") ones. And he said they looked a little like ghosts or dragons in the sky. Then he said, "I think they're probably called serious clouds because dragons are pretty serious."
Andrew was in snowman pajamas until he opened these. Immediately he started taking off the ones he was wearing so he could wear these instead.
Our cute 11 yr old niece made this adorable hat for Eliza. She loves it already! She also got a beautiful dress from one of her aunts that we can't wait for her to wear.
A big thank you to our family who gave us some really fun gifts! They were all really great & we enjoy them all! It was really funny though to open the same present I got in 1995, only this time it was a hardcover book instead of paperback. My brother wrote a fun book, "Dating: A Pre-Mission Perspective" & gave us the second edition this year. It's been fun to read it again & have some good laughs. So if anyone needs dating advice...
We are truly blessed by all of the thoughtful, fun, helpful, & entertaining gifts that we received. And we are especially blessed by the gift of our Savior! We are grateful for this season celebrating His birth. Merry Christmas!
