Christmas Happenings.

Our Christmas was a wonderful one this year. It was so amazing to watch the kids learn about the true meaning of Christmas. I never would have imagined that Children could comprehend the story of Jesus and his birth. We had such an amazing holiday. I have to say that December is all around my favorite month. I love Christmas lights, music (starting right after Halloween), decorations, the spirit, BONUS', presents, Santa, but mostly of all getting to remember that all of this was made possible because of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Creed has learned to pray, I have to say that this has to be one of my favorite moments in the day. Chandler will usually start the prayer which goes something like this. Dear Jesus, Thank you for Mommy, Daddy, Chandler, and Creed. I pray that Cohen comes out OK, in Jesus name we pray AMEN...Then Cody will finish. Creed just sits there folding his hands with a huge smile on his face.

So We saw Santa.....Creed was not too sure about this man with the white beard! Chandler sat there and told Santa EVERYTHING that she wanted.

One of these things included a PINK gun. I have now informed Cody that sine he is fixing to have 2 boys, he is not allowed to try and make my ONLY little girl, his buddy! I have to say though Chandler loves to go hunting. We have decided that she is going to make the perfect wife because she loves to help me cook, loves babies and everything about them, but also loves the outdoors and hunting.

This will be the last Christmas with 2 Kiddos, next year we get to experience the joy of 3 Kids faces light up.

At Concordia Lutheran Church, Christmas Eve service. It was very important to us that before we did any present opening, we reiterated the true meaning of Christmas. Often times it is easy, especially with small children to get wrapped up with Santa Claus and forget to teach the kids why we are getting to open all of the presents. Concordia is so awesome, they know that this can often be an antsy time for Children so they do a Christmas Pageant to tell the story of baby Jesus.
