What a wonderful Christmas we had this year! We have certainly been blessed this holiday season. The kids had the best Christmas ever, not only were they spoiled rotten but we got to spend a lot of time together. With mom not working anymore and dads work cutting his hours back so much we spent most of the season at home. Livi's counts havent been good lately so we didnt want to chance taking her anywhere unless it was a super special occasion. Like seeing santa! We went to the mall during the day so there wouldnt be very many people. Livi was so excited and knew everything she was going to ask for, in fact when we were on our way out the gate, she had to run back to tell him something else....what a goof. Ryker on the other hand would even look at santa! As you can tell by the picture he is a little dazed and not sure at all what to think of this man.....dont worry when he asked what Ryker wanted Livi quickly said to him, "Ryker is shy, but he wants lots of dinosaurs." What a good sister!
Ginger bread houses are a must this holiday season. We usually cook the ginger bread and get all crafty, I was lazy this year and bought the box that has everything inside it. It was a blast. I let the kids each have their own side and had a blast for hours decorating and concentrating so hard.
Christmas day!! We were so excited and anxious for Christmas this year. The kids got so many gifts from so many wonderful people! Neighbors, ward members, even people we didnt even know brought gifts for our children. It is truely amazing how giving people are. They dont even need anything in return. It really makes you realize how many wonderful people there are in this world, I am forever humbled and it has changed the way I look at life. I will always try to do my best to give back and will always try to do my part to help others in need. Thank you so much everyone for making this Christmas a wonderful one for our family!!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!
