It's the most wonderful time of the year....

After commemorating the birth of the Savior, the next best thing about Christmas is the Children! The joy on their faces, the anticipation while the gifts are being handed out, the excitement of the NEW!









Then there is the time for relaxation, baking cookies (not that that is relaxing), and just enjoying each other.
I couldn't get the red eye out of Caroline's picture, but wanted to post the picture because it shows who this little girl is. She is SO happy, easy to make smile, and when she watches her older siblings do crazy things, she has a wonderful belly laugh!









I wish I would have gotten a picture of Heidi brushing Zach's teeth. It was so fun to watch both mom (kneeling on top of him so he won't run away) and dad, in their different styles.


To top our celebrations, we had a birthday to celebrate, Charlotte Ann's! What a cute 6 year old. You would think she is at least a year older. She reads incredibly well. Her and Savannah are inseparable, so whatever Savannah does, Charlotte does, which has made her older and more mature than her years! They are great friends!

We know how hard it is to travel, especially with 5 little children, but we were so excited to share this wonderful time with Isaac, Heidi and their children. We thank them so much for all they did to make this a special Christmas for us in our new home.
