Christmas Day 2012

Degen loves Angry Birds!

I can't believe it has taken me so long to blog... it was just Christmas and now it is nearly mid-January! We enjoyed a very happy Christmas. You can tell the kids are getting older because they are more excited about Christmas...and presents! Degen had me up early (which is not unusual) and Kyrie & Darren were up not too long after. As usual, our first stop is our "Santa Piles." We spent much of the morning unwrapping & playing with our gifts from Santa. These photos are a few of the things the kids liked best.



A new outfit for Baby April.



Spending most of Christmas in the living room lets us appreciate the true beauty of Christmas: friendship & love. Our mantle is filled with the photos & cards sent to us by family & friends. We are so very blessed! After our Santa Piles and stockings, we take a break for a light lunch. We will need all the energy we can get to tackle the presents under the tree...ha! 



This is cream cheese topped with our homegrown, homemade Three Pepper Relish/Pepper Onion Relish. 


The kids were super-excited to open their gifts under the tree! We are so grateful to all our family & friends who sent gifts to brighten our holiday! Here are a few highlights of the afternoon:
