As a four year old, Mason is in such a fun stage of life, and the excitement and magic is real to him. After our boys woke up and before we went downstairs, we watched 'Luke 2' on youtube, from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This is a tradition we got from Nate's family, and I love how it focusses our day around the true meaning of Christmas. Presents and toys in the morning, a nap, ginger bread houses at our friends the Awerkamps home, and dinner with one of Nate's co-workers Judy here at our home. Judy is the Secretary who works for Professor Moore, and so funny we laughed all night. We had pork tenderloin, mashed potatoes, berry and candied walnut salad, and ginger-cranberry juice. We miss our family and thought of them and talked to them throughout the day. Love my littles and my sweetheart here at home!

| Nate thought of getting these blocks for them so they could play together. |

Best gift I got this year. What a blessing to know you are part of our family. Love to you all. I have shared Mason singing I Am A Child Of God. Everyone is so touched by it. What a beautiful gift to us all
