Christmas Day!




The long awaited day finally came with tons of Surprises!
We had a great Christmas this year
and the girls were very excited about their gifts.

The Nativity

This year Emmie was too big to be baby Jesus.
So we made her the Angel - Abbie was Mary - Maddie was Joseph -
and of course Shem was the donkey.
Acting out The Nativity Scene is one of my kids
FAVORITE parts of Christmas.

Sledding on Shem's Birthday


This is how Shem decided to spend the day on his birthday.
We took the girls sledding,
with some friends on Christmas Eve.
It was really cold but really fun.
Shem had to prove that he's not getting old.


Happy Birthday Babe - Hope it was a great one - WE LOVE YOU!

Maddies School Play

Maddie just did her first play and YES she loved it.
She got to be the narrator because she knows how to read.
It was very exciting for her. They told a story about toys
going on a train ride and they sang tons of Christmas songs.
