Merry Christmas!

What a fun day it's been at our house! We've stayed in our PJ's the entire day - yes, we're still in them - and have relaxed and played lots! Audrey enjoyed the wrapping paper and Anna was ecstatic over her new kitchen. Both had lots of fun checking out the new addition to the toy room and Anna quickly got it all set up with some help from mommy of course. She's been wearing her apron and princess crown, which she calls her new headband, all day. Audrey really enjoyed tearing the paper just as much if not more than the new toys. Anna has spent most of the day playing with her new kitchen and also with her new dollhouse accessories. We made cupcakes to celebrate Jesus's birthday and had fun coloring pictures of the nativity while Daddy read about Jesus's birth from the Children's Bible. Anna helped narrate... she loves to tell about the angels talking to the shepherds. We hope everyone has had a great day celebrating the birth of our Savior. The past month has been fun for us as a family with Anna being old enough now to understand some of the Christmas story. We walked through the living nativity, went caroling at a nursing home and to some homes of older people in our church, and delivered sweets to our neighbors. Anna's excitement with each activity has made it all the more fun.
