Kate was excited for Christmas and woke us just before six. She just knew Santa was good to her. Of course he was as she had been good all year!
Arika still believes and it was fun to track Santa's progress to our house online and get her excited to go to bed. She was thrilled at the gifts he brought.
Ben turns thirteen! Wow doesn't seem like that could be but here it is. He is so fun to be around and helps all his sisters. Between Christmas and his birthday he got all he wanted! Spoiled:)
Bekah's first Christmas. She loved the lights and paper the best.
Kisiah's first look and feel of snow. But it was cold so we weren't out long.
The ice storm made everything so beautiful but broke tons of trees and made it a nightmare to drive. Talk about opposition in all things.
Bart took this picture out our back door. Looks like one for a post card.

We got a white Christmas this year...unusual yes! We enjoyed it and it came the week before Christmas so the kids ended up with three weeks off from school. It was a fun time to spend with family and not worry about anything. We played games morning till night! It was fun. We were sad to see it melt but happy to know that others existed too!
