Merry Christmas 2014

This was a Christmas we won't forget! Ryan asked to sleep in Andrew's top bunk and then got a stomach bug. Yep, all down the wall, and the bed, and the front of the bed...you get the picture.  It was not pretty. Somehow, Andrew never got it!  We all woke a little later than normal and Ryan seemed fine until he took a 5 hour nap later in the day. 

 All three boys worked for a month on this box for Chris so he could play with them. It has openings and cubbies and cool drawings GALORE:)

 It wasn't completely like Andrew, but he got very upset that Santa didn't bring him the three things he asked for. He recently changed his list and I think he ended up getting one off each list. Papa tried to talk to him about surprises and after awhile, he was okay, but there were a fair amount of tears.

 Julian was telling Great-Grandma all about his new bus from Uncle Mike.

How big are you this year? Ryan's face is my favorite. He obviously wanted to take this picture.

 Once we came home from Grammy and Papa's house, Chris didn't feel well and slept for the next 24 hours. We made our birthday cake for Jesus and just stayed home from any Christmas Dinners.

We hope you had a healthy, excitement filled, God centered Christmas. It is a hard thing to try to teach the boys but we are doing the best we can. Merry Christmas!!
