We headed to the Cities to celebrate Christmas with our families on December 22nd, so we had our own little celebration before we left town. We read the Christmas story, finished up our advent calendar, picked out a gift to give from the World Vision catalog and then opened some gifts. It was a simple celebration of the birth of Christ and yet totally chaotic with the ages of our boys!
Cros is still at the age where the wrapping paper is cooler than the gift:)
Carter got his first set of legos! Not sure who was more excited-Tim, Carter or me!
Crosby always tried to climb to the highest point...eye surgery really didn't slow him down:)
Cros in his new hat!
I couldn't believe the difference between this year and last...the big boys spent most of the day on the living room floor just playing with their new toys. I guess in fairness it was a combination of playing and fighting:)
We are still trying to figure out what traditions to have and how to make Christmas Christ-centered and special, especially when we are on the road for so much of December. I suppose we just need to take it a year at a time:)
