It seems like after a month of planning and
anticipation the Christmas Season is gone in a flash. A little review of our Christmas Season.
We celebrated Christmas Eve at our church in
Ankeny. We had a great service and is always a wonderful reminder on the whole reason why we celebrate Christmas. Sunday School is normally held during church, but on Christmas Eve Zach got to attend with us (Cale still got to go to the nursery). Zach was impressed with the candlelight service. Eric was a little nervous watching Zach hold his own candle, I heard him whisper - be careful you don't want to catch mommy on fire.
Christmas morning, Zach states he just can't wait until the 7:00 to wake up; he was just too excited. (those were my instructions the night prior). I can live with 6:45, I was just afraid it might be 4 or 5 in the morning. Zach LOVES opening presents,
especially when one of his last presents was the thing he had been asking for and asking for . . .a
Nintendo ds- Santa delivered. As for Cale, he was just happy having doughnuts. But, I did find 2 things he did like and that was a table top
Foosball table and play
doh. The tabletop
Foosball table is actually something the 4 of us all can play and have fun at.
After opening presents, we spent the morning and afternoon playing with the new stuff.
In the afternoon we headed to
Marshalltown to celebrate the day with Eric's side of the family. The cousins have fun playing and lots of great food.

Love the pics! We were very thankful we could just stay home this year and do things in our home on Christmas morning.
