best. Christmas. ever.

I could go on and on about our Holidays and the fun we have had. Ky sang in her first school concert, and we were all impressed that she actually sang! Ty gave her some flowers, and you could tell it was a very special night for her. We made a gingerbread house that fell apart and gingerbread men that looked more like a crime scene than Christmas cookies. We counted down the days each night on our calendar, drank cocoa, and ate my Mom's AMAZING danish. I was especially excited for this year since the first half of this year was so rough for us, and also because the girls are finally old enough to really BELIEVE. We left out cookies and milk for Santa, and some oats and carrots for Rudolph and friends. After a long night of furniture rearranging and tent construction after they fell asleep we were woken up at 1:30, 1:45, 3:30, and 5:30 by Kyrie alerting us that Santa had been here. We kept telling her that when the sun came up we could open presents, so at 7 am I found her on her bed starring out the window waiting for dawn. It was such a special day, with lots of surprises, hugs, and very loud screaming.

I love the lady bug and the acorn. Glad you had a great day, isn't it fun when Santa comes and that you are a true believer. Love you guys, Merry Christmas.
