Christmas at our house

We had Christmas at our house this year and we are so grateful for everyone traveling to our house to celebrate. We are also thankful for every one's help to make it a wonderful Christmas. Evan made and brought dinner to our house on Christmas Eve. He made a yummy Beef Tenderloin stuffed with spinach, pasta and spaghetti squash. On Christmas Day, we had Honey Baked Ham that we made into sandwiches. Of course there were plenty of sweet goodies to go around as well. The boys had so many things to open that by the end, we took turns opening their gifts. The boys got a snazzy, upgraded wagon, art supplies -- including paints and toddler paint brushes (look for art work to come soon!), bath toys, and a pass to the Center for Puppetry Arts (thanks Joey). Oh, and a million books -- but both boys love books so we welcomed the new books!

One of the many books!

You mean we can't open these presents for 3 more hours?


That's more like it!


A Christmas hug!


Benjamin: "Yep, they say we just missed Santa. Do you see any signs of his sleigh?"
Ethan: "No, brother, I can not really even see out the window."
