The Wise Men:)


Cameron built a nice manger for Mary, Joseph and baby Jesus. The boys have enjoyed it:). I'm hoping to go out Christmas morning and read about the birth of Christ as a family inside our little manger, all bundled up of course;). The boys are excited about Santa Claus. Uncle Bruce got us a cool little Elf that we hide every night for the boys to find every morning. The story of Elf is that he'll go back before Christmas and tell Santa how the boys have been. They love getting up every morning to find the elf. It's a lot of fun for them. Although they enjoy Santa and the Elf, they really do know that the real meaning of Christmas is Jesus. They know that the Elf is "pretend" watching them but they know that God sees them ALL the time, EVERYWHERE. They're at a wonderful age right now and this Christmas has been the best so far for our family.
What a gift we've all been given! It just brings tears to my eyes to think of that special night years ago when God sent us a Savior!!!
