Oh how we love Christmas! It seems to come and go so quickly. We always do the "real" Christmas story on Christmas Eve. This year Jordan was Joseph and Kira was Mary and Kirstin's cabbage patch doll from long ago was baby Jesus. It was the most precious Christmas pageant ever. Kira was all excited for Christmas and was running around everywhere but as soon as she put on the Mary costume and sat down with baby Jesus she became very reverent as if she knew that this was something very special. Bill read the story out of the Bible and you could have heard a pin drop. The wonderful news that Jesus Christ was born to save us all is the most wonderful story of all!
Joseph, Mary and Baby Jesus...
What a sweet Mary...
Santa is catching up on his long winters nap.
Christmas morning...the Christmas picture on the stairs before running into the living room to see what Santa brought. We seem to be few in number this year.....
Erin got a puppy! One that she could keep in the house. A Christmas miracle!
Josh got his Skylander Giant game.
Jordan thinks he knows what's in this package....
And he was right....a transformer game.
Jordan got exactly what he wanted.....the transformer game and a new camera.
Erin loves Minnie and Minnie loves Erin.
Here's the tool man himself!
Oh, I think daddy-o is taking a liking to Minnie!
How can you be this beautiful when just waking up? Merry Christmas Whitney!
Griff got a photo book of the 2012 football season.
Grandma Seppi gave Kira a huge make-up kit. Kira loves it.
All Kira asked for for Christmas was a Green Poka-dot dress. I think she might have gotten it....
She did and she looks beautiful in it!
Berrett, Kirstin and Kira
Kalli came on Christmas Day and all she wanted to do was play in the snow...in her mom's boots.
I don't think Erin is going to put Minnie down...
Berrett painted this painting of Austin and Griff as missionaries for me to give to Bill. He did an awesome job. One of my favorite things this Christmas was talking to Austin on the phone. The best was when I heard him laugh. Oh, how I've missed that boy. He got to talk to everyone. We talked for 2 hours. It was the fastest two hours ever. He is doing awesome and absolutely loves being a missionary. What a blessing and the most wonderful gift of all!
