Yes, We had Christmas:))

This year Kevin & I had more conversations about what gifts to five the kids then ever.  It was intentional and a ton of fun:)  Thatcher got a bow and arrow; Brody got a guitar; Ella got a few smaller things & Barrett got dice...yep yep:)  They all got 3 gifts, just seemed easier that way.  Scaling back is good....the kids never noticed.  We read "What God Wants for Christmas" and it ends with a mirror simply stating that God wants US:)

Although they fought over who could hold Mary, or a wise man, the point hopefully remained...God wants US.  He wants our lives to bring Him glory....for that I am so thankful to be a small part of it as we raise kids.  Champions for Him...that is our goal.  Not perfect, not just right, just His....

What a fun am at our house:)  Thankful for good memories!!
 They like each other some of the time:))
Barrett got a set of dice....oh so cute:))  he loves them!!
 LOVE this pic.....he really wanted a guitar.  God provided one at a fabulous price:)))
