Christmas 2013

Well, look at me--posting blogs in a timely manner... 
 
After Mike's graduation, he came to Houston to spend the week of Christmas with us.  He'll have to return to San Angelo for a week or two to pack up his dorm room and have our household goods packed up and shipped to Maryland. 
 
While he was here, we attended an Allison gathering where we spent time with lots of uncles, aunts, and cousins.
 
 
The kids making brownie reindeer with Nana.

 
Our Christmas Eve tradition of celebrating Jesus' birth with "Happy Birthday Jesus" cupcakes.

 
We attended the Christmas Eve candlelight service at Oak Ridge Baptist Church. 

 
After the service we headed to Grandma's for a ham dinner and opening gifts.


 
Christmas morning Judith was excited to see her Ariel bike.

 
Jonas got a bow and arrow set.

 
One of Ezra's gifts: Phineas and Ferb figures.

 
Christmas evening we went to Grandma Allison's house.  Uncle Caleb brought some fireworks for the kiddos.

 
We were happy to celebrate with lots of family this year!  Next year, we look forward to our first Christmas in Maryland!
