{Christmas...}

I wanted to blog about our Christmas weekend before my computer is all packed up and these next few weeks fly by.

We had a great Christmas this year! It was so nice to take a break from all the moving chaos, and celebrate with our family. We love spending time with our "Texas" family and will miss them lots!

I love the excitement that my kids had for Santa to come. They were so fun to watch. Each one is at a different stage and they all crack us up and make us smile. Boston, said over and over, "I just love Christmas." Savy said to me while we were cleaning up, "I love Santa, he was really busy shopping this year." Colston was still a little clueless as to what was going on, but he loves Santa and LOVED opening presents. Although he didn't understand why Santa left his new Powerwheels Jeep in the box. He kept saying, "Please Dad, Jeep OPEN!"

We feel so incredibly blessed. I think with all that has been going on in the past few weeks, it was great for me to take a breather and reflect on the true meaning of Christmas and all that our Savior has done for us. This year has been a great year, with many new experiences and challenges. We are all anxious to get this move behind us and are ready for the next chapter of our lives to begin! Bring on 2011!
