Happy Birthday, Jesus!!!

We had a great Christmas! Last year we were all sick with the flu -- literally from December 23--January 4th! It was miserable! We were so thankful to be healthy and happy this year! 

Christmas Eve service was wonderful as always! Our church has a candle light service that is so sweet and brings me to tears every year! Dinner at mikes dads afterwards. My mom & stepdad came over for Christmas breakfast and presents and then we went to mikes aunts house for Christmas dinner! We're ready for the new year and look forward to what God has in store for us!!! 

Sweetness!

Asher wanted a flat-billed hat (like his older friends in the neighborhood). 😉

My mom got Asher a drum kit!! 😳 I need earplugs!!! Ha! 

My wrapping this year. It was fun! 

It's Christmas time!!

My FAVORITE time of the year...especially since the kids are getting older--I'm loving every moment of this season! Asher loves Santa and can't wait to see what he has to bring for him this hear. Presley is deathly afraid of Santa but loves the nightly car rides around the neighborhood to look at Christmas lights. Last weekend we rode the neighborhood horse-drawn carriages to check out lights and drank hot chocolate and cookies! Last night we had friends over to decorate Christmas cookies and last week was the kids Christmas program at school. So fun!! 

Mike and I went to see Michael W Smith & Amy Grant in concert last weekend. Their Christmas concert was so great and definitely puts you in the Christmas spirit (even though it's been 65 degrees!)!

Our new (last year) 12-foot tree! Love it!!!! 

Sucha cute plate! Can't wait to bake cookies for Santa!!! 

We got new blow up decorations this year! They are huge! The kids each got to pick one! 🎅⛄️

Michael W Smith & Amy Grant ❤️❤️
