We had a nice Christmas. I think it was great, but poor Jacob was sick. He started throwing up at around 2pm on Christmas Eve and it took him until the next day to really get out of bed. It was basically me and the kids doing all of the fun things. We watched the Nativity, we read books, set out cookies, etc. etc. I made a nice dinner with all of the trimmings......and then enjoyed it myself because Jake couldn't eat a thing and the kids were full of treats that day. Oh well, it really was a nice dinner. Over all, it was great to spend some quiet peaceful time with the kids and see how sweet they are about the holiday. They had such a great time on Christmas morning. It was all squeels and delight from them. Here is a picture of Abigail in her new Tinkerbell costume. I think it is her favorite gift. She hasn't taken it off for three days :)
It was a white Christmas. We have had so much snow here, I don't think it has been like this for at least a few years. Our kids are in heaven playing in the white fluff, but I am freezing! Luckily, they have a great father who still lives in some of his childhood fantasies. One of which, is building the biggest and best snow fort ever. He has spent three days straight out there with the kids making this thing great...and it is! It is complete with tunnels, a great slide, and a whole "living area" with benches and chairs. The kids really don't know how lucky they are. For Jacob's sake I am hoping the sun stays away for at least a few days :)

How was the snow fort? Did you guys have a good time playing with it? I wanted to know if we could come to your house sometimes and play in the snow fort. Can you not let the snow fall off? I want to play in it. Why can't you let me have a turn?
