Four Thirty Christmas Morning...Yes, Aaron and I are the bad children that wake up WAY to early to look at presents.
Christmas Eve
I just love and adore Christmas! It really is the most wonderful time of the year.
Aaron and I were lucky enough to spend Christmas with my family in California. It was a blast! We fed homeless people on Christmas Eve, saw real reindeer in Oak Glen, made gingerbread houses, filled stockings, played games and of course had lots of(maybe to many ) Christmas treats. My missionary brother, Matthew, called from Sweden and we talked to him for four hours on speaker phone. We thought it was a little chilly in California...then Matthew told us he was pretty close to the North Pole and the temperature was zero. So I stopped complaining about the cold.
I'm so grateful we are able to celebrate Christmas and remember the birth of Christ. I told Aaron on our way to California that when I was a little girl I was always so excited for my presents. Now I just get excited to be able to be with my family and remember the birth of Christ. I also love being able to give Christmas related service to those in need. I'm glad I have gained perspective on the true meaning of Christmas over the years.
We are slightly curious as to what a dentist is supposed to do with a yard of sugar gum?

Aaron got an air soft gun...keeps the wife in check.
