We wish you a Merry Christmas!!


Merry Christmas One And All!!!
We had another wonderful Christmas this year. It all starts off of course with Christmas eve. Every year on Christmas eve we each get to make our own individual gourmet pizza! Afterwards we watch the Church video called "Joy To The World" its the Christmas story and then it has the tabernacle choir afterwards that sings a few songs. Then we write our gifts to Jesus and stick them in the tree. After wards we do Christmas Pajamas, and then read the night before Christmas. In years past we were able to get away without leaving milk and cookies for santa. This year we were not so lucky. We had to leave 4 cookies and Chocolate milk. Stefan was insistant that it be chocolate milk because Santa likes Chocolate milk.
After the kids go to bed eric spends his time putting some kind of toy together, and stephanie is a wrapping fool! How we get so far behind we aren't quite sure but nonetheless it happens every year. Stephanie doesn't mind, she actually enjoys wrapping. (which is probably why its like this every year)

Christmas day was great. The kids loved everything and Eric & Stephanie got some neat things as well. This year was a dry Christmas. For the past 3 or 4 years it has snowed every christmas morning and we would go Sledding across the street on Christmas. This year no snow, but was kind of nice not having to rush to get everyone dressed to go sledding. It was a very relaxful day.
