Christmas 2012

We had a great Christmas this year--especially with it being Nate's 1st Christmas.  Lots of wonderful time with our families.  These photos highlight some of our favorite moments.

I love presents.  Hee hee!

Nate's favorite part was all the wrapping paper and ribbon

Jay made a special birdhouse for Barb--so cute!

Merry Christmas everyone!

Nathan got many of the classic toys for Christmas including the vacuum popper, the Fisher Price rotary telephone, some classic puzzles, blocks, ring stacker, lots of board books, and also some fun bath toys.  He definitely is a spoiled little boy (thank you families for your generosity!).

Grampa Jay mentioned how having baby Nathan around has given us new perspective about celebrating the birth of baby Jesus.  I mentioned in my last post that our greatest gift this year is Nathan, but obviously our greatest gift ever is the birth of our Savior and what He did to pay for our sins.  We feel so overwhelmed by God's grace and blessings and Nathan has helped us to realize that in a whole new way.  We hope all of you and your families had a blessed holiday season and that 2013 brings lots of peace and happiness.
