Christmas!

Levi's first Christmas.

                                     Rebecca was glad it was FINALLY time to open her presents.

But before she opened hers, she insisted that Aaron and I go first.

Levi likes eating and tearing paper so he is good at this part.

"This is what I always wanted" What is it Rebecca? "I don't know"

Very excited about her ballet outfit!

She also got a bead set, so we figured she's need a jewelry box in which to keep her treasures.

Daddy helping with her Kaleidescope kit.

            

All of bubby's presents.

We opened gifts on Christmas Eve afternoon, while everyone was awake and in good moods. It turned out really well and gave the children plenty of time to unwrap, play a while, and then unwrap some more. Our Christmas day we got to focus on going to church, having a little dinner, taking a nap....LOL, and playing with the chillins.

Day Trip... Part 2

Pictures from outside the Museum in their Garden and few shots of their Bethlemhem. It was hard to get very many good pictures because of all the motion and the darkness.

Tent of the Magi

 Much needed fires dotted the trail to warm us poor freezing souls!

A plug for our favorite candidate!

I usually stick to just pics of our family and what we are up to, but right now that includes being very excited about the Presidential race. Out candidate of choice, Ron Paul. To read more about him, including his statement of faith check out www.ronpaul2012.com We got personally involved this morning with a small donation and then Aaron's name came on the screen as a recent donator.....kind of cool!
