December was a month full of family, friends, food and celebrating the birth of Jesus. I loved all of it. I treasure every single moment with my family. As chaotic as it has been with a newborn, we have all turned a corner in adjusting to being a family of four. These children are such a gift to Matt and me and we could not be more thankful. We had Christmas parties to dress up for, (which was sooooo much fun with McKenna... little Christmas dresses are so sweet!) cookie parties, nights of walking the neighborhood looking at Christmas lights, lots of time spent making cookies and treats, a sleepover in San Diego that was super successful (Jord, sparkling cider and peppermint cookies-best traditions ever), tree lightings, Christmas movies, Christmas music... it was a very full and fun month. Our nativity scene sits right next to our dining room table and Jack was very enthralled with baby Jesus. Explaining to him that Jesus was once a baby born in a manger was very surreal. I hope and pray that Jack and McKenna will put their faith in Christ and know him as their personal Savior. Merry Christmas!
