Merry Christmas

I hope everyone had a merry Christmas. We had a good holiday season. Last week we did take Josiah and Lillian to see Santa. He wasn't scared at all and really enjoyed the sucker that Santa gave him. We spent Christmas Eve at Grandma Star's. It was a really nice evening. We did the traditional gag gift exchange. Luckily we didn't come home with anything too bad. On Christmas morning the grandparents came over for eggs and sausage and to watch the kids open their presents. Josiah did have fun opening his presents, but of course he wanted each one opened right then and didn't want to open the next gift. Grant helped Lillian open up her gifts. Later that day Aunt Christine, Cousin Mark, Mom, and Dad came over for the traditional Christmas Day waffle lunch. Josiah then took a nice nap for round 3. We went over to Aunt Kandy and Todd's for the Kissel Christmas. We had delicious food as usual and had fun spending time with our family. We are so blessed with such wonderful families. My favorite thing about Christmas is just spending so much time with family. I feel my parents did a good job in celebrating Christmas with us growing up because I have never really felt that the point of Chrismas is to get stuff. I love the traditions that come with the season and all the wonderful memories made with spending so much concentrated time with our families. Thank you everyone for such a wonderful time. She didn't get a bag of coal...she's way too sweet. Now....him on the other hand. That's what he'll be getting next year. :)
