Merry Christmas!!

 This was maybe my favorite Christmas as a mom! The kids are at great ages and all appreciative of the gifts, time and parties we fill our days with. They each got a big present from Mom and Dad, then 3 presents from Santa. A few extras from mom and dad then a sibling gift. They got filled with loot. The best part of the Christmas break was the quality time we had together. We stayed home and enjoyed our time together. Truly valuable and memorable.  

Christmas Eve was so simple and perfect. We started a new tradition....a steak cook off competition. This year was between Trent and Scott. Trent worked so hard and made a grocery list. He def won for effort, uniqueness and presentation. I look forward to this tradition growing. We went to service and ended the night with making cookies with the Green family. The kids all were grateful and excited. What a magical Christmas season. Goodbye 2023!!!
