The Mandatory Pics
Here are just a couple of pictures from Christmas day.
We had a wonderful December leading up to our Savior's birth, and Jake took everything in with an open and trusting heart, a true child! He loved playing with the Nativity sets around the house and memorizing Christmas hymns and songs. He told us next year when he and Warren are bigger that he'll teach his brother all that stuff too. On Christmas morning we ate Happy Birthday muffins complete with a candle while Ryan read us the story of Jesus' advent. If it 
sounds idyllic, it wasn't. This was all going on with a sometimes screaming, sometimes laughing baby in the background. But, it is the significance of the celebration that we pray they won't forget any time soon. Anyway, we then opened presents and later on went to Ryan's parent's for Christmas lunch/brunch. Fun times!

Fun times!What more could a dad ask for than a young boy who loves Home Depot? He was thrilled with his Home Depot tool box.
The class clown (and yes, that shirt is way too small for him!)
Until next time...

Do you think Jake can do some fix me ups here around the house? We've been looking for a toolman! Glad you guys had a good Christmas. Did you see the pic from Alex's shower? I look like a fatty but it's so worth it :). E-mail you hand out dates soon Jen!

Hey how are you feeling? Love the Christmas pictures. The boys are getting so big.
Jen, I love the updates on your family! It seems that you all are doing quite well! I would love to see you all soon if you are in the area. I don't think that we will be getting down to so cal till the summer, after the little guy is a bit adjusted. I'm sure that your mom has told you, but he's due on April 13th, I can't believe how quickly time has gone by. So much change, a very good change! Well I hope to continue to hear how you all are doing. Do you know any more about the position in Kansas? Any other news of staying or moving? I hope to talk to you soon!
