Merry Christmas!

I think this is going to be the first year Chris really understands Christmas. We have been starting all sorts of holiday traditions that I've been waiting 3 years to do. So far we wake up every morning and find Pumpkin, our elf on the shelf. Chris named him. I think he still had Thanksgiving on the brain.
When Dad gets home we take a chain off our advent calendar and eat a Christmas chocolate. Each night Chris opens a present under the tree (funny how they're all Christmas books from the library so far). We got a toy nativity scene this year, so Chris is starting to understand the story of Christmas. Bryce just knows he really likes to chew on baby Jesus. Chris was a wiseman in the church Christmas pageant. At school last week his nursery class sang Jingle Bells and Mary had a Baby. It was one of the sweetest things I've ever seen. This has been a really special Christmas season. Merry Christmas friends and family!
