A Very Merry Christmas!

The leftovers have almost all been eaten. The decorations are put away! And the memories have been made! This Christmas brought so many things!
Like...
Really great times with friends and family! :)

Fun decorating, pizzas (the best ever), and a birthday party (Ali is 2!).













[Unfortunately - coughs and colds, strep throat (poor Karlee), a crazy-serious ear infection (poor Jana), and sleepless nights (poor Kirk).]

So much yummy food, scrumptious treats, beautiful music, caroling and even a talent show.















Santa,



anticipation, excitement,



presents,and "Oohs and Aahs" galore.





Lots of hugs and the phrase "OOH, thank you, thank you, thank you!"





Messes,



more presents (Oh my goodness are the pecan turtles yummy! Thanks Dad!),



and lots of time to play!







And I really love that it brought those sweet, tender moments of love



and time spent reflecting on the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ.













What a wonderful time of year! We truly have been blessed! We hope you all had a very Merry Christmas! And we hope this New Year will be filled of those special moments spent reflecting on our Savior Jesus Christ. May we remember Him all the year through! Happy 2010!
