just imagine that chloe is in this picture and that david isn't looking at me like he is trying to blow up the camera with his mind power. i realize at this point i need to do a much better job of taking pictures in future years...
we are so blessed to have so much family that is close enough to spend the holidays with and christmas is no exception. it is difficult for me to imagine anything more magical than watching my children (or any child) experience the joy of christmas.
of course we had a christmas melt down (or thirty) from the lack of sleep and over excitement...but the laughter, the smiles, and the desire to be comforted by the normalcy of family made all of the not so fun moments more than worthwhile.
our first christmas started with kyle's family on christmas eve. we headed over for lunch? dinner? at 2:00. it is always fun to watch harper, chloe, and emmi interact because they are all so close in age. i love that. my cousin is 6 months younger than me and there wasn't much better than hanging out with her...even though my aunt and uncle swear i was the trouble maker...maybe i just always had good ideas. it is nice that they are all starting to get old enough to play without constant grown up intervention because that gave me time to laugh and hang out with the rest of the family...and who doesn't like a good laugh on christmas? kyle and his dad in that hat...sigh.
part 2...our house christmas eve/morning...coming soon :)
