Merry Christmas!

Christmas 2007
This year was so much fun with MaKayla. She loved the lights, the paper and of course unwrapping hers and everyone else’s presents. Andy and I read her the Christmas story from her little bible on Christmas morning and spent the whole morning just as a family. We started a new tradition this year and decided that we are going to stay home on Christmas day and not run around to everyone’s house. So Christmas was done a little differently this year. My Mom and family came up the weekend before Christmas. Christmas Eve we went to visit my Grandpa and Elaine and then that evening we went to my Dad and Bonnie’s. Christmas morning was at home and was heavenly! Christmas afternoon the Morris family came over to celebrate. I ended up hosting two different Christmas dinners but we enjoyed Christmas and were able to reflect on the true meaning and spend lots of time starting our own traditions. One big happy family!
Santa brought MaKayla ball pit for Christmas.

Our stocking hung at the fireplace with goodies to open on Christmas morning.

What a pretty plum fairy!
Aunt Vickie and Uncle Nick gave MaKayla this four wheeler for Christmas. She loves running into everything!
