We had a wonderful Christmas celebration... starting with a visit to our vet's farm. He and his wife were very sweet to our family and invited us to their farm on Christmas Eve... to see the animals in their barn. When we got there it was not just a barn but a wonderful home and half the barn was a real barn with animals... This is actually where 2 "real cowboys" live. At least that is what Lily, Isaac, Josiah, Mya and Luke will tell you. The vet lives in a huge stone mansion below this....He had us all come into the fireplace in the barn and he read a story about a cowboy on Christmas Eve.... and it tied into the Nativity story. Everytime Dr. Engstrome spoke with the kids about Levi he had tears in his own eyes... It was very special for us to see him feel this way.
Christmas am was early... and frantic. The kids love this time . I actually enjoy watching them..... They get mad at Daddy and I because we are not opening our presents.... They don't understand what a gift it is for us to watch them.... be happy and so full of joy.
