Merry Christmas

What a great, simple, perfect Christmas we had! I've learned a huge lesson this season. A lesson I would have never learned had I not been exhausted from this pregnancy. Here is it.....Just keep things simple! I LOVED the simplicity of celebrating Jesus birth! The decorations were simple, the gifts were simple, the lessons were rich! This Christmas season was definitely successful because my kiddos (especially Brody) are walking away knowing who Mary, Joseph and Baby Jesus are!!! And that is exactly why we celebrate!!!!

Going to bed on Christmas Eve. No matter how old you get the magic of Christmas Day is still so exciting!!
We aren't not believing in Santa but just kinda forgot to talk about him much this month. So B was a bit confused why some man was coming down the chimney, to eat the cookies and leave presents :) He was never frightened at the fact of Santa. He thought Santa would come in his room, wake him up, re-tuck him in. When B woke up in the morning he wanted to go to the roof to look at the reindeer ;)

Christmas morning was such a great celebration! Brody got his first tricycle!!! When he wasn't riding it around the house, Aubs girl was sitting on it :)





The kids were so excited about celebrating Jesus special day! While making the cake I was reminded why I don't make my own cakes ;)
Brody loves his bike!!!! He went on for a couple hours needing to "fix" his bike. He was some of his tools out and was working hard :)
And Brod requested staying in his jamies all day.
We had a great day!!! Anytime we all get to be home together we know is going to be a perfect day! Thankful for such a sweet family to get to celebrate with.
