I can't believe Christmas has already come and gone once again. This year was the first year that Parker really got into Christmas, so it was so much fun! He counted down the days until Santa came. It was so sweet Christmas Eve we had been talking about the true meaning of Christmas and Parker said "well, that is so nice that Jesus gives us all presents on his birthday...we need to take him a birthday present." We told him that was a great idea and asked him how we could get it to him and he said we could take it to the Mall and give it to Santa and he could take it to him. (When he asked how Santa could see him all the time we had to come up with something quick, so we told him he hangs out Jesus and they are always watching him together.) I thought this was so precious and told him that next year we would take Jesus a birthday present and give it to Santa to take back to him. This may be a new tradition we start! Parker was the most excited this year about his new Toy Story car and Woody and his "Buzz Lighmare" costume. Presley still wasn't too excited about opening gifts, unless it was a baby doll. She LOVES baby dolls. Santa's gifts were pretty big hits...Parker got a trampoline for inside and Presley got a dollhouse...twice her size! They both have really enjoyed the recordable book of "twas the Night Before Christmas" that Pa & Nana gave them. They love hearing their voices and they listen to it over & over! They both enjoyed seeing all the Christmas lights and watching Christmas movies. We had such a great Christmas being with family and remembering what it is all about.
