A Very Merry Christmas

We haven't posted anything in a while...we've been a little under the weather and are just beginning to get back on our feet.  But, we did have a good Christmas.  Here are a few random pictures.

Someday we will upgrade to a nicer Christmas tree, but for now a paper tree will do!!

Christmas Eve we read the story of Christ's birth.  The girls wanted to act it out.  They chose me for Mary, James for Joseph, TJ for baby Jesus, and they wanted to be shepherds.

 They opened their pajamas on Christmas Eve and seemed to approve.

Christmas morning Sofia was up by 5 am.  Hannah actually slept in, so she had plenty of time to explore what Santa had left.  She was really excited at first...then kind of forgot about gifts/Christmas until Hannah woke up.

They seemed to have lots of fun opening gifts.  James went to work afterwards, but only for a few hours.  All-in-all it was a good Christmas.  Our kids were excited, yet it was very simple and low-key.  It was kind of nice in a lot of ways.
