It's funny how everyone can't wait for winter to get here, and get relief from the heat-but then once the cold is here-we can't wait for the warm weather to be able to get outside!
We had a wonderful Christmas-other than the fact that we didn't get to see my family-but we will soon I'm sure.
We had Steven's huge family (appx 75) on December 13th, then went back on the 23rd for his immediate family (20). Then we drove back from Birmingham on Christmas Eve-so Santa could bring our stuff to our house:)
We usually wake the kids up on Christmas morning so we can be sure to be awake-and they can all see what Santa brought at the same time.
Here are some pictures of Christmas morning...
Please remember to keep the sale of our house in your prayers. We are open to renting now-but are still in a contract with our realtor until the end of March. It is a bit of a struggle to pay two mortgages a month...pray...
