Merry Christmas!

I know I have so much to blog about but we have been savoring the richness of the season (also known as being super Christmas-fun busy)!  I promise to (eventually) get caught up but I did want to post our girl's picture with Santa...

I really expected a total melt down but much to my surprise (and enjoyment) the melt down stayed at bay!  There were 2 families in front of us and I think it helped to see other kids walk up to this big guy and sit on his knee with no tears involved!  Our sweet (big) girl held her daddy's finger and walked up to Santa all by herself!  There were no tears (but no real smiles either) so I considered it a complete success!
So, just in case I don't get back to my blog before Christmas... Merry Christmas!  And may God bless you in 2012 with love, peace, and JOY!
