A few days before Christmas we once again had the honor of hosting the yearly get together of our dear college friends. It was a special treat to have some stay over night, and have the rest spend an entire (WONDERFUL) day together.
We love these guys and gals and kids so deeply.
Such Precious Friends

Next Came our family celebration of Christmas, complete with great anticipation, wonder and delight! Each year seems more special and meaningful than the last as we watch our boys grow into a deeper understanding of the true meaning of Christmas...this year being no exception.
Having said that, they are still ALL kids and LOVE opening a few presents! :)
It was declared that on Christmas Day we would have a "comfy day" in pj's and sweats -- all day -- and that's just what we did! :)
Happy Birthday to Jesus Cake:
And there's also nothing like taking time to decorate a gingerbread house!
As this year draws to a close, we are once again overwhelmed by God's mercies and grace poured lavishly upon us and our family. We don't feel worthy of such blessings but are incredibly grateful as we count and receive each one of them.
We praise Him through all blessings flow.
Merry Christmas!
