Christmas quikie

I am leaving tomorrow for Guatemala. I just thought that I would post up some Christmas pics. (this site is STILL uploading them small. ..stupid thing!) We had a fabulous Christmas. It is sooo much fun being a parent during this time. I loved watching my twerps open up their gifts and I especially loved seeing Henry believe in Santa. Santa wrote Henry a letter and told him that he should eat more variety of food (read: fruits & veggies) and sure enough! He did! For Henry he got 12 die-cast cars characters from the self-same titled movie. Fern got some aprons and bracelets and dresses which has made her very happy. She is a clothes girl for sure. She saw a new purple dress and took it to Lyn and was all ugghh uggghhh. [put this on me!] We opened our presents in 3 different waves due to hunger or tiredness. We have had so much fun playing with all the toys to. One of the best things about Christmas was that we had a white Christmas just like the ones I used to know, where the tree tops glisten, and children lis... What? wait! oh, yeah it was snowing really good it just never stuck. But if you just looked just at the sky it was fantastic. We have received so many blessings and surprise gifts that we truly feel that God is watching out for us. We have had 2 different Doorbell Ditches done on us only to find generous gifts waiting for us on the step. whomever you are...thank you.

Well a happy New Year to all of you. I will be thinking about you when I am in the 90 degree tropical weather sipping a coconut milk under the shade of a palm tree and... I 'm just rubbin it in.... Sorry.
I love you all.

Edit: To all my friends near and far, in my self-pity I stated that I had only 1 friend, when in fact I have many. I was trying to point out that my very best friend lives in Guatemala.
Postforoosh: I'll still take you up on the mtn. trip though. :)
