In the interest of preserving memories of our family traditions, I'm going to share these images a bit late...
Long before we had children, Nathan and I would have our own little Christmas celebration before leaving to be with family -- a special meal on our wedding china, then opening gifts by the fireplace (about the only time of the year that we use it)! The addition of children has changed very little. We kept it pretty simple. Each child got a DVD, an activity (game or puzzle), a special change bank (divided for saving, tithing, and spending), and for their big gift, they each got a remote control car. Ellie's reaction was priceless! Than contrary to our better judgment, we tried sleeping under the Christmas tree, but that lasted all of 20 minutes! Special memories with our little family!
One other gift I forgot to mention was a DVD of all of our home video clips from 2011. They LOVE it. And I love not being chained to the computer to keep You Tube clips running! ;-)
