This year by far has been one of our most fun Christmas's yet. Luke was old enough to really "get" it and Caleb, well, he throughly enjoyed himself too. But now that this post is well considered "old" in blogging world, I want to take time to really relish the moments of this past Christmas.
I don't ever want to forget:
The tiny voice saying "go to sleep mom!" from inside a dark warm room on Christmas Eve.
The way my boys opened all their gifts and enjoyed every one of them. Luke especially saying "oh man!" every single time. And Caleb getting really excited over his Puffs and Baby Food.
The memories made on Christmas Eve with my family and there being so many gifts you could barely see Caleb in the pile.
The memories made on Christmas Day with Brandon's family.
The joy in watching my boys and my sweet nephew finally being able to really play together. (okay more Luke and Jayden then Caleb, but it was so precious!)
Baking cookies with my kids and my cousins and family.
Hearing my husband read the story of Jesus' birth to my 3 year old.
Watching Luke's face light up and yelling the color of the lights he saw when looking at them.
Caleb's first Christmas.
Trying to get a picture of all 13 kids together at our small group Christmas.
The joy in knowing a Savior came to us that night to save us all.
It really was a magical time and we are so blessed to have our family and friends! It was definetly a Christmas to remember.
