Merry Christmas!

Just wanted to share a few pics from Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. The kids had much fun opening new pajamas from Grandma & Grandpa on Christmas Eve and amazingly went right to sleep in anticipation of Santa's arrival! Christmas Day brought orange danish & cinnamon rolls, then time to open tons of presents! Maddie got Dora bedding, a new dress, clothes, dolls and a new bike! Hunter got more cars and trains than I've ever seen in one room, a big caterpillar dump truck and lots of new clothes too. They haven't stopped playing w/them all morning. Special thanks to both our families who were so generous! We enjoyed video-chatting while the kids opened their gifts. Thanks again!

The new dump truck!

Candy canes!

Hunter opens his Thomas PJ's.

Maddie was so excited to get Dora PJ's!

Not a new toy, but they sure enjoyed it in their new PJ's!



Hunter loves trains!

Pics around the Christmas Tree

Just a few pics after church today. Our Christmas cards are already in the mail so you won't see these on there. Charlie wandered into one also, but it wasn't very flattering! Enjoy!

Dec is here!

Well, Thanksgiving is but a memory and Christmas fast approaching. The kids are enjoying the Christmas tree and decorations, and anxious for Christmas Day. They're enjoying playing in the leaves, going to park, and art/music classes during the week. Maddie has 2 more weeks of school until the break. Hunter gains more personality by the day and is very engaging. He loves trains, and will 'strenuously object' if you take him away! Maddie is a good big sister, and wants to hold his hand when walking down the street and give him random hugs. We're looking forward to the Christmas break, although we'll miss being with family this year. Enjoy!

We went to ride a tiny train that one of the local families owns and Santa was there!

Yes, we actually have leaves in the high desert! And our house is at the junction of 2 streets, so we gather all the leaves on the street when the wind blows!

Ready to go!

Sup?
