Merry Christmas from S. and Company!

Merry Christmas to each of you!! We hope this finds you all healthy and happy. We have had a very sweet Christmas season so far (I always think it goes by too quickly), and tonight we enjoyed the Christmas Eve service at our church. We are thankful for so many things this Christmas... wonderful children, our marriage, great extended families, jobs we both feel called to, friends near and far, a warm home, and so many more, but especially the fact that our God loved this world so much that he sent his only child, his son, so that whoever believes in him may not perish but have eternal life. A perfect reason to celebrate, in our opinion!

(The following are a couple pics from tonight. Steve made a terrific supper, then we read the Christmas story, and the kids opened gifts from us. Intermix two excited kids running from one end of the house to the other, stripping their dress clothes off, a barking collie, and a frustrated mom who's camera batteries just went dead . A few deep breaths, a discovery of batteries, and some jammies later things were back on track.) ;o)


This is Seth's "Are we done with pictures yet?" look.

The kids and Steve waiting for me to bring them the Christmas story. (Perhaps some day they will both be able to sit through it. Tonight we had Seth doing somersaults half way through the story and Haddie shouting "No, no, no!" to no one in particular. :0)

He he. This is our life. Quite crazy at times, but we love it.

Again, Merry Christmas to you!

Thanks for stopping by!
