Christmas day 2012.

Christmas day! The day we celebrate Christ's birth. Praise be to the Lord!
On Christmas mornings, we all congregate in the living room, and wait to open our stockings. One by one, Papa calls us up there and asks us two questions. -"Who are you thankful for?" and "Who do you love?"  Once we all get our stockings, we open them together.




Papa- "who are you thankful for, Jacob?" Jacob-"you."  Papa-"who do you love?" Jacob- "my family."




Nickolas' answers were hilarious.
Papa- "Nickolas, who are you thankful for?"
Nick- "You."
Papa- "Who do you love?"
Nick- "Me."
Walking off with his loot. :)













Towards the afternoon, we had the joy of having over the Bradley, Gaul, and Bloomer families.

The kids, getting ready to receive their stockings...:)
We had stockings for each one of those little blessings. :)







Presents went all around from everybody, to everybody. Such JOY filled the room.


We spent the rest of the evening snacking, in fellowship, eating, and being thankful for all we have. This was a wonderful Christmas!!

After Christmas was over, all of our Christmas decor went down, and put away. It went from a glorious Christmas mess, to this...
 
....Don't you love that feeling? Everything is ready for the new year!
