Christmas this year has been a snowy one. December has felt a lot like January usually does with a lot of snow. Our Christmas celebrations started this year at Mass where James played Joseph in the Pageant. He did a wonderful job but tended to get “upset” with me every time I asked him if the girl playing Mary was cute! After Mass we headed to Grandma and Grandpa Cooper’s house where we had Christmas Eve dinner and opened presents. The kids have been great all year and without any doubt they were on Santa’s good list. Santa didn’t disappoint and we had a great time opening presents in the morning. Alanna is enjoying her new doll and horse and James is enjoying all his Harry Potter and Disney Infinity games. Later today we will travel to Grandma and Grandpa VanStrien’s house. Grandpa was able to recover from his rehab just in time for Christmas and says he is doing better than ever!
