We had such a great Christmas! We had to wake the kids up at 8:30 because we were up and couldn't go back to sleep. I am assuming that this is the last year that will happen. We opened presents upstairs and played for a little while before we tooke them downstairs for the big surprise:
Mike and I have spent the last month getting the basement cleaned up and painted for the kids. We finished in time, although there are still some small things to be taken care of. The ball pit is a definite hit and Carter loves the blowup fire house. I am hoping that they will have more to do in the house besides watch TV now.
These are some of my proudest accomplishments (the aprons, not the kids :)). I made them aprons with 'Sous Chef Carter" and "Sous Chef Samantha" embroidered on them. They are super cute. That toy kitchen came in about 1000 pieces. It took me almost 2 hours to assemble, and I am pretty good at assembling things.
Above and beyond the toys and gifts we have been so blessed this year. We are all healthy, we have enough to eat, and we have a warm home. Mike has a good job that he does well at and we have the gospel in our home. We are so grateful especially at this time for our Savior and his life. May God bless you and your family the way he has blessed ours!

Wow! What a great Christmas. You must be so happy to have all of that space so the kids have places to play. Love the aprons, they turned out super cute.
