We have a small family. It has been created by stitching lives together from across the world. It has not been an easy way to build a family, but I would never, ever, change a thing about it. No matter how the week goes, when I come home, my family makes me smile.
We began the season by doing the normal things...you know...gingerbread houses...
...family photos......snacks...
...We visited each set of parents...
...enjoyed the chaos of a Huffman Christmas...
...both families were part of our Christmas...
...Chloe got a tablet...
...and showed her cousin how to use it...her aunts got together and did the same thing...with a bigger pad...
...on Christmas morning we awoke and opened our stockings...
We had a SPECTACULAR breakfast!! Cora made an unwholesome, demonic batch of French Toast that should probably be put on a terrorist list. It was yummy on about 7 levels that made me think unwholesome thoughts.
Chloe really loved her presents from Santa and us!
Christmas afternoon, we decided to go for a walk. Since the snow had been falling all night we decided to use the sled. We had a fun time.
Today, after a while relaxing indoors, we built a snowman.
...a snowman helped us lose weight...
...we raced...
...we discovered our shadow...
we learned to be a family a little more.
