Merry Christmas!!!

Wow, Christmas is over. This year was sort of depressing leading up to Christmas because I wanted to be off from work and be with my family so badly. I had to work until the 24th. But Kevin did such a good job on keeping the kids occupied. I am so thankful for him. Anyways, after I finally got home, things turned out wonderful and we have had such a special time since.

Biruk snuggled up with dad Christmas morning waiting for Ana and Danica to get up




Okay, my biggest wish is to get matching stocking stuffers next year. They so don't match. Funny!! In fact I had to borrow 2 of Danica's. Danica was so cute, she actually put them up there all neatly and cleaned up the living room so nicely while we were sleeping. She also put up the love sign in the picture above.
Biruk got a spider man scooter. He is obsessed with spider man
Yeahhh and spider man gloves and a little robe since our house is so cold all the time
Amira got princess Belle to comb her hair and a box of princess dresses. It has like 3 dresses and she is wearing one of them.
The little pink thing above Amira's bed is from my sister in Germany. It used to be her daughter's. So that was a nice bonus present I didn't have to buy.

I loved seeing a little of your Christmas! What is it with boys and spiderman? They all love it even if they have never seen the movie! Amira and Joanna would have a ball together playing princess non-stop. How sweet to celebrate their first Christmas home.

Wowwy, those are so cool! Amira looked so sweet. Thanks for sharing Christmas morning with us, I thought of you all often. Someday we will have to work out how to spend some holiday time together.

Merry Christmas!

I'm glad that even though you didn't have time off that Christmas day was wonderful! The kids look so happy! They like this American tradition, don't they?

Oh, I just love seeing all the little Ethiopian kids in families at Christmas! I can't believe how many have come home in the past year and it is just so wonderful to see! Tell Biruk and Amira "hi" from Sammy and Tekalegn (Sammy has decided that Biruk is his friend too and asks every time we see an airplane if little "G" is on the plane).

Merry Christmas!!! Amira is too beautiful! Funny, I was looking at your Christmas picture on our wall the other day...if I didn't know they were adopted I would not guess it. I love how God places children in our families... those that are the best fit. ;o) Love it! You are blessed!
