Merry Christmas!

It was very nice to have Christmas at home this year with just the five of us.  We pulled off a lovely Christmas dinner, complete with Deep Fried Turkey, and had a relaxing day enjoying our gifts and each other.  Thank you to our friends and family for all the nice things they sent.  But the greatest gift of all is your love and friendship.  We feel very blessed this Christmas day and always!  Merry Christmas!

Our Christmas tree

The girls set out cookies and egg nog for Santa, and carrots for the reindeer.

It's hard enough trying to get a picture of the kids all looking at the camera.

It's nearly impossible to get a good one of the five of us with the timer set.

So you get two versions.  Take your pick.

Tuesday was Daddy-Daughter Date Night.  They both looked really nice.

Pam and Ryan,

This is the most incredible web site. Your family's progress with healing is phenominal. Everyone looks healthy and happy.

I've been following your letters through the years (Scheri has forwarded) and my heart has needed continual contact of how you are doing.

Good luck with your new ears Ryan, can't wait to see the updates.

My goodness! Noah is absolutely adorable in that little, argyle sweater. Jaida... I love the dress. And Ryan... sharp suit! I didn't realize I had such a well dressed family. I'm feeling pretty shabby right about now!
