                                                      Christmas morning

                                                                       Santa came!!

                                                  The kids left santa a letter along with milk, cookies
                                                   and carrots for the reindeers

                                                        Silas got a fire truck for santa

                                             This Christmas was so much fun!! The kids are at a fun age and
                                         love the spirit of Christmas.  I am dreading the day they find out the truth about
                                      santa.  Some one once told me "if they believe, they will recieve".  And that's
                                        what I will live by.  The holiday season is so much fun, from decorating the house and the christmas tree, to baking cookies putting lights on the house, shopping, wrapping presents, reading christmas stories, and driving around to look at all the lights.  I cherish these moments with the kids because they grow up so fast.  They enjoy all of this and we love going along with it.
However, I can't believe it is already over and the Christmas tree, lights and decorations will soon be taken down.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!
