Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas Season and is planning to have a great New Year. We had a wonderful 5 days of Christmas (yes, 5. Friday through Tuesday) with all of our family. The joy of Christmas is just amazing to see through a child's eyes. Colin had such joy on his face all week.

On Christmas Eve we attended the 2:30 church service, which thankfully was the children's service, so a little chatter from Colin wasn't a big deal. As we walked into the sanctuary the usher looked just like Santa with a beard and all. Colin says in a fairly loud voice "Merry Christmas Santa." Scott and I did all we could from laughing out loud. Then, just before the service started Colin shouted out "Happy Birthday Jesus!" Many people turned around and gave us a big smile. He certainly could have said something worst, so we just smiled at our little boy. Happy to see that he understands Christmas is more than just toys.
This is just one of the many stories and memories we have from this Christmas season. Here are a few pictures to share with you.

Friday night we celebrated Christmas with my cousins and there kids. Wow, has our family grown!


Saturday we were with the Geach side at Gramma and Grandpa's house.


Sunday we were at Aunt Cindy's house to celebrate with Gramma's side of the Geach Family. Colin loves "checking email" as he calls it on his new laptop computer.


Monday we were at Nanny and Papa McGill's house. Here Colin is opening a Diego doll. A big hit!

Christmas morning we woke up at home and look what Santa left in our stockings!
For the rest of the day we were at our house and the Grandparent's, Auntie Stacy, Cousin EB and Mark joined us. Santa stopped by both of the Grandparent's house and left stockings for us there too! Wow, is Colin spoiled or what?
And the greatest news of all..... Colin is going to have a new baby cousin this summer. We are so excited!!!
Thank you to everyone that celebrated this holiday season with us. We had such a wonderful time with everyone. And thank you to everyone who gave us so many presents! I think our house has turned into Toys R Us!! Where to put all of these new toys.
