MERRY CHRISTMAS 2008!

... And what a very, merry Christmas it was! It was absolutely great to be home and celebrating with all our family throughout the holiday season. It's taken a little while (obviously) to get all my pictures downloaded and back to our blog, but I knew it would be here whenver I got back. We've really just been thoroughly enjoying our time together. :)

The boys anticipated Christmas quite calmly this year actually. They were excited, but not out-of-control and they didn't have a long list of toys (although you couldn't tell it by looking under the Christmas tree! ha!). Hudson had a cute "Baby Jesus" party at his preschool where they sang songs to entertain us. He also got to "play" an angel in a live nativity at our church one night. Cade loved watching Rudolph, and singing Christmas carols (even as solos during church!). I think he knew at least one line from every carol we sang!


Both helped make cookies for Santa for his Christmas journey...

Christmas day was spectacular! Hudson got up as usual, came downstairs, looked in our room, and calmly said, "Hey! Santa came to see us last night." It was very cute. Then we had to go get Cade so they could explore everything together. We had the luxury of staying home all day in our pajamas. Family came to visit us at different times, and we enjoyed their company so much. It was very special for the boys to be able to share their Christmas treasures in their own home with their grandparents, great-grandparents, ...




Hope your Christmas was your "merriest" yet!
Happy New Year everyone!
