Christmas

We had a nice and calm Christmas this year. We spent it in Florida since my Dr wouldn't let us travel after I turned 36 weeks. 
 We enjoyed a night in with the Francises on Sunday night. There was some yummy food and lots of toys for the kiddos.
 On Monday night we went to the church's Christmas Eve service. The kids got to go on stage with the pastor while he read them "The Miracle of Christmas" and then they all received a gift from him and Miss Karen. It was very nice. 
 When we got home we opened the first gift of Christmas and all got dressed in our new Christmas Pj's. Daddy read us the Christmas story and we all went to bed.
 Well most of us...some of us filled the stockings and put presents under the tree! We did this in record time since Troy only had to assemble one gift this year!
 And then in the early morning hours the usual chaos broke out! Gifts were opened and the fun began.
 Poor Sam had a terrible stomach virus all morning and ended up throwing up on his new Nintendo DS. Luckily it only last about 5 hours and he was feeling a lot better by the evening.
 Maddie and Daddy showing off some of their gifts. Daddy got a new jacket and Maddie got a Nintendo DS as well. 
 Daddy grilled us a yummy steak dinner and made some roasted veggies. He has proved to be pretty handy these last few weeks!
Here is the kids right before bed with a few of their gifts. We feel very blessed to be able to celebrate the Saviors birth with our three beautiful children!
