Merry Christmas!!!

Yesterday was so much fun. The kids are old enough to feel the excitement of Christmas but young enough to still know of the magic of it. We woke early (to early really ) Kadrey was just to excited, Jaxon just wanted to keep on sleeping he said "we can open the presents later" as he refused to get out of bed:) silly boy. However, after he started to open the presents he got very excited. Kadrey informed me that she had a wonderful day, and got most of the things on her list. The things that she did not get she will just ask for again next year. I am really surprised that Santa is still so real in her mind and I wonder if she still believes it all or just pretends too. Dan was almost as ecxited for Jaxons new toys as Jaxon was (that is Jaxons gun that Dan is holding )He rolled his ankle the other day and even though he had to limp and his ankle is the size of a soft ball he had a fun day. We then spent sometime at grandma and grandpas house (were the kids got some more presents)and then came home in the evening and played jr. Yahtzee and Jr. monopoly (we had a lot of fun).

Oh and I have quick story....The other day after work I can home and there was a small present on our porch (I was sure that it was a book). I figured it was from my visiting teachers even though it was not addressed to anyone specific. I stuck it under the tree

and continued on with the day. Yesterday it was one of the last present to get opened and it was a book. "i heard the bells on Christmas morn". only it was not from my

visiting teachers or anyone else that is i

n our ward. It was from Early Intervention (the therapists that worked with Kourtney) The book was for our family and they just wanted us to know that they were thinking of us and Kourtney - so sweet huh.

Well, Merry Christmas everyone ( I know that Christmas is only a one day celebration but I hope everyone can feel the spirit of it always:)
