simply having a wonderful Christmastime!

I have been a lazy blogger!  We had a very nice Christmas this year.     

A few days before Christmas, we were able to visit a special new addition.  A sweet family from our town recently adopted little Eisely from Henan province. Sarah brought her a Mulan doll as a gift and was very excited to meet her, even though she looks less than thrilled in the picture.  The third little sweetie is a mutual friend from our neighborhood.

 We had fun decorating cookies for Santa.

Jason liked his Spiderman web shooter and the green cape that Logan gave him.  (notice "the aftermath" in the background!)

 Sarah liked her presents, too... especially these empty wrapping paper rolls.  ;)

We had visits from both sets of grandparents.  Here Sarah is instructing Grandma and Grandad the proper way to open their gifts.  

And here Sarah and Grandpa are taking a snooze on the couch.   

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!
