Six new puppies!
Having fun at the Christmas playground in the mall (Mom, do we HAVE to stop and take a picture?)
Making lots of Christmas goodies

David's debut as master turkey griller
Christmas Eve meal (we're SO glad that David's parents could spend the holidays with us)
Our creative fireplace and opening stockings on Christmas Eve
EVERY year, there is the discussion: What IS that animal on David's stocking?

Reading the Christmas story and finishing the advent calendar with baby Jesus in the manger
Fun opening Christmas presents
Fun playing with Christmas presents

I must be emotional! I totally cried to see Juliana wearing Susie's shirt's in the first couple pics. :) Love it so much! I cannot tell you!! She is adorable, and it looks like you had a wonderful Christmas. I didn't realize Phil and Mary Ruth were with you guys -- we just saw them in Danville at Thanksgiving!
How cute is Gabriel in that shepherd outfit??!!
