We had such a lovely Christmas. Once I get everything uploaded from my phone I'll have a few more posts to share.
Christmas is so special with young ones. Due to a lighter work day, we were able to go to the candlelight service on Christmas Eve. This year, the three older ones attended with us at the service. They did so well! The best part for them was of course lighting all the candles. It was a beautiful sight. Afterward they opened their stockings.
Christmas morning entailed four very excited children. I always try to spend a good deal of time thinking and researching gifts. This year was another hit! We spend time opening one gift at a time so no moment is missed. The big boys were thrilled with their Lego sets, Minecraft handbooks and the Stink book series. They also got walkie talkies which they have loved. Eleanor was thrilled with a few craft sets, her own Lego set, a new Barbie and a blankie mermaid tail. And Thatcher.....we all things Mickey Mouse of course. His love for that mouse is going almost 3 years strong and I love it!
We gifted the children this year with the most beautiful Disney watercolor artwork. It is now displayed over our mantle.
In a couple months Everett will be studying Paddington Bear for literature. He loved this gift!
And Thatcher got a new robe which is beyond cute on him.
Eleanor's blankie tail. So sweet on our girl.
Four very happy children!
Watching our new movie, Beauty and the Beast while eating a Christmas breakfast of cinnamon rolls and veggie bacon.
The best we could get.
Running to get in front of the tree before the timer goes off on the camera. Perhaps a new game?
Such a wonderful Christmas!
