We had several pictures taken by
Jaydub Photography this fall. Above are a couple that I liked. My favorite one went out as our Christmas card this year and pictures of the boys made our Christmas gift giving easy. We had a wonderful Christmas at home this year. My dad took most of the pictures so as soon as I get those from him I'll post some. Andrew was extremely excited about Santa this year. We counted down the Advent season with 3 Advent calendars this year. He could hardly wait! Santa brought exactly what he wanted and he didn't show him pictures of what he wanted, wow, how did Santa know? Henry was a little overwhelmed with all the present opening commotion. Henry chose to ignore it mostly and just wanted to sit on a lap and read books as usual. Now, a week later, Henry can't get enough of his new toys!
My dad visited briefly for Christmas Eve. We were all able to watch Andrew's performance in the Church pageant on the 24th. He did an excellent job. We had several people tell us he stole the show. Mostly with his hilarious antics. He tickled the baby Jesus, was heard laughing behind the partition, and began crawling around the alter (he was a cow after all). Andrew also knew all the words to the songs and all the motions that went along with them, so, he really was entertaining.
We had good friends over for Christmas Day dinner and enjoyed good food and company. I hope everyone's year went as well as our family's has gone. Here's to 2012!
