We failed to get a full family picture after Church, but we still got some fun ones.
That afternoon we took the kids to a park with a sledding hill so they could try out the sleds Santa brought them. They had a blast, even though the hill was a bit small. Cat's Santa gift was a beginning snowboard and she had a lot of fun trying it out.
Christmas evening Cat really began working on learning ukulele in earnest. Luckily, her visiting uncle plays ukulele and was able to help her get started. In the first 24 hours or so, Cat had learned 15 chords and worked on singing tons of songs.

| The youngest three of the house entertained themselves with glow sticks for a while. |

| Eliza got a few arts & crafts kits for Christmas and had fun trying out as many as she could that day. |

| Jack and Ben spent a lot of time putting together this ship from Jack's new LEGO Creator set. Very cool! |
We had a great day together, enjoying church and fun surprises and just being together. I'm so thankful for the Christmas season. I'm thankful for the fun and the presents and the family time. And I'm so very thankful for the reason for the season, that Jesus Christ came to Earth to make it possible for us to return to Heaven once more.
Amen, and thank you for sharing.
