Merry Christmas!


What a wonderful time of year and wonderful reason to celebrate Christmas. Even though our time with our families will be a little delayed this year (due to weather) we are reminded that there never is a bad Christmas. The true meaning of Christmas reminds us what a wonderful celebration this time is. The picture above: on our way to our Christmas Eve service. You may not be able to tell, but Lauren did her own hair and wanted to wear a layered shirt like her mother...she has 3 shirts on! She also had the opportunity to sing at church again and had a wonderful time!


Oh the excitement of Christmas morning! We attempted to make a birthday cake for Jesus, but Lauren thought he would like cookies instead. Lauren loved her tent and watch from Santa:

when coming down the stairs and finds her new tent.. "That's what I like"
when finding her watch..smiles..then "Oh. That's not the right kind." then puts it on and won't take it off.
Apparently she wanted a Tinkerbell watch, not a Disney Princess watch..but I don't think it really matters.


Who knew this vacuum with Dustbuster would be such a hit! She cleaned all day with it!

Helping Dad with his new game from the girls! This is a fun one we have played several times already! (Note: the time on the clock says 6:15am..we had already been up for 45minutes by this time)

Meredith gets her turn.

After a busy morning, the girls had some cuddle time in Lauren's new tent watching a movie! Meredith loves her big sister so much and loves to watch her every move.


The snow continued to fall off and on all day. Lauren had fun playing in all the snow!

Meredith's first Christmas! And Christmas morning - doesn't it make you smile to see the true enthusiasm and face of a child's joy? I hope to make snow angels with Lauren someday - I think this snow will be around for a while!
