Christmas Day... one of the most highly anticipated days of the year! I hope that no mater how old my children get that there will always be wonder and excitement that surround that day for so many reasons. I still remember barely being able to go to sleep when I was young because I was so excited to see what Santa left us for Christmas morning and I remember being crazy excited about the gifts that he left! I love seeing the wonder and excitement and sheer joy on their faces Christmas morning. I can only imagine that our heavenly father felt those same feelings as he watched Mary and Joseph on that first Christmas morning as the held tight to the greatest gift this world has ever known. May my children always remember that Christmas is a time of miracles and the impossible...I mean, using a baby to save the world is pretty miraculous and among those things man would think "impossible"! Happy Birthday Jesus and Merry Christmas!
Several years ago, we decided that since the wisemen brought Jesus 3 gifts.... Santa would bring the boys three gifts too! (I'm sure they will be the first to tell you that mommy decided this! LOL)
Santa for Nate: LeBron Shoes/Socks & IPod and Book
Santa for Ben: Bike, Army Toys and Kindle Fire
Santa for Zac: Skylander, Army Toys and IPod
I think the IPods and the Kindle Fire were the biggest hit
and biggest surprise from Santa!
It was a very laid back Christmas day just spent hanging out with the boys and playing with all of the new toys! Nana and Papa Doc came up later that day to see what all Santa had left behind and to eat some yummy food & have a birthday celebration for Jesus! No snow to deal with this Christmas so it was a very relaxing and wonderful day!
It has been a wonderful Christmas season; exhausting but nothing short of perfect!
