Hope your presents were as cute as mine!

This is our first Christmas with our daughter, FINALLY, after waiting for her to come for 8 years.  So, it has been especially special.  When Justin woke up, he turned to me and said "Is our present awake?"   And that is exactly how I feel too. 

This Christmas season has been even more poignant because now I know how Mary must have felt about this little baby.   But that baby was not only her gift, but the whole worlds, how wonderful!  What a blessing for us!

Happy Birthday baby Jesus!...  and thank you for our little miracle!  And, speaking of cute babies, here is our little present!  I hope they brighten your day!  (I'm sorta sorry for how many there are.. sorta, but there were a lot more, so count yourself lucky I didn't make you see them all!)

Did someone turn out the lights?

Oh man, you caught me!

What? I wasn't doing anything!

I wonder how long I am going to have to sit here before they find me?

I'm getting kinda hungry, I better check if this is any good.

You want me to open this one early huh, cause I'm so cute!

P.S.  I have some great ideas for

recycling your old artificial Christmas tree

Especially if you feel it has seen it's last Christmas, stay tuned! 

(I may not get it up until Monday!

But, I figure you can print out the instructions, stick it in the tree's box and do it next year!)
