Christmas Magic



As we enter adulthood it's easy to loose the magic of Christmas. Then as we have children and experience Christmas with them we find the mystery and suspense returns.
     Our favorite parts of Christmas were watching Liam open his presents, giving his gingerbread man offering to Santa, and listening for Santa's tip toeing.

Elsie at 7 months couldn't care less about Christmas. In her naive oblivion she crawled into the middle of the present opening and sucked on a spatula, smiling and happy as can be.

There are few annual experiences more blissful than squeezing around a big dinner table with family on Christmas Eve and enjoying the aroma of good food and the anticipation of Christmas morning. It's a soul- comforting feeling. I wish I could get a dose of it every day of the year.

Thanks to Brady's mom, Leisa for the fantastic photos!!

Noelle was looking at one of the pictures of Elsie and said "that little Liam, she's so cute!
Your kids do look a similar. I am glad you had a nice Christmas.
