I didn't get any pictures on Christmas morning, but rest assured the kids were properly spoiled and happy. We had several sincere offerings of thanks which make it all worth it. We are thankful beyond words for our Savior who is the reason for the season and without whom none of this would matter. Merry Christmas, one and all!

What wonderful Christmas memories! I loved the Elf pictures...so fun that you took a couple of pictures of them. And you got some adorable pics of the family. It makes me so lonesome for you all.
I miss these years. I think it was the calmest stage of family life. The desires were pretty simple and Christmas gratitude truly is priceless
