A very merry Christmas to all of you and I hope it was and is all you hoped it would be!
I have to say that this year might be my favorite Christmas with the boys over all. The age they are at, 7, is just the perfect combination of still being young enough to believe in the Christmas magic but also old enough to understand more what it is all about.
In addition to this we are so so so happy to have my parents here with us this year and Colorado showed and delivered it's best side yet with the picture perfect setting of fresh powdery snow that arrived a couple of days ago and then set the setting today with clear blue skies. Picture perfect. We have been outside sledding yesterday and today and it was so lovely all around.
The gifts were plenty as well and I think we all got spoiled more then we should have but Christmas only happens once a year and the laughter and joy all the gifts brought were so worth it.
I have to point out Connor, who due to Make A Wish was able to 'buy' presents for 6 people in the beginning of December. Every gift he picked out was so to the point and picked out with so much thought. Each one was a hit, from a Football for Alexander, to Necklaces and Earrings for my Mom and I, Gloves for Opa and a Beer Stein, Cards and Snacks for his Papa He also got a gift for his Aunty Sam but since we are not sure she opened it yet I am not going to mention it. My Necklace is a Key as in a key to his heart ... very touching and a very precious gift to me!
Hugs,
