Merry Christmas

Wow I can hardly believe that Christmas is already here. I'm pretty sure we just had Christmas and Isabelle was just born. Well I guess not really since we now have four kids and just a few years have passed. Each one more exciting than the last.

This year was great. We had the chance to stay in our hometown of Arlington, Texas and celebrate the holiday with my parents, Ben's parents, and his sister Penny. The kids really enjoyed themselves and so did the adults.


Isabelle got the chance to "perform" in the church program this year as an angle, when before she was supposed to be a sheep. She was a little sad about the change of character but she handled it well and went on with her new roll as planned.


The boys were wild and crazy little things but they enjoyed presents, food and family fun as well. They are still waiting for a good windy day to fly their new kites that Santa brought. I hope it is windy soon since I think these kites are going to rock.


Our elf made is final debut being a little naughty himself and wrapped the tree in toilet paper. Pretty fun, or so the kids thought. Isabelle was sad when he had to go back but we told her, he would be back next year. I'm not sure how effective it was but Cooper sure did find the elf at other people's houses, it was kind of cute.


Until next year and another round of madness can begin. Maybe in 2012 I will plan better and get their presents ahead of time. Ha, like that will happen.
