christmas 2010

Wow, this has been a whirlwind week, or month for that matter! I can't believe Christmas is already over. We had our 2nd annual Christmas Eve outreach at the Performing Arts Center again, only we did two performances this year. A great deal of time was spent planning and preparing for it, and the Lord truly blessed. On Christmas day, we went to Grandma and Grandpa's house and relaxed. Mackenzie also happened to get her stitches out that day as well. She took a spill on the tile floor last week and had 4 stitches in her chin. Never a dull moment... So here's some pics from our weekend:

The best part of Christmas day-the kids and Grandma put together a puppet show of the Christmas story (Brendan's idea). It was surprise for all of us and it was great!!

Thanks for sharing! I honestly don't know how you manage such a big load between the kids and everyday needs of life, presents and making Christmas fun for your kids, and the huge church Christmas production.

Your family continues to be such a blessing to us and we love you.
