A White Christmas - 2010

Christmas Cardinal.We woke up to a white Christmas which was beautiful. It snowed only about an inch but covered the old snow nicely making it a perfect day to spend inside enjoying Christmas Day!

He came, Santa came!A better view of the loot.
Lucas woke up before anyone and headed down stars to take a peek. He didn't touch a thing. I heard him on the stairs and invited him in for some Christmas cuddles. I had no idea he had gone down stairs until he told me he needed to whisper something into my ear. He said, "I know what Axel got for Christmas...Santa was here." So sweet!

We cuddled awhile and then headed down together.

Axel just starred in complete amazement. He would not look at anything else but the train.Lucas' Christmas wish. A few weeks ago, Lucas asked Daddy if wishes really can come true. Daddy said, "Some Christmas wishes do come true. What is your wish?" Lucas replied, "I wish Santa would bring me a new Indiana Jones Wii game. I'm not sure if there's one invented yet but I think he could make me one if there's not."

His wish came true!
He also got a Leapster Explorer.
Axel didn't care about his stocking or any of the other wrapped gifts. He was content with his new train.

He finally agreed and quickly realized there was good reason to check out his stocking.

I asked Lucas if he got everything he wished for. He quietly said, "No. I didn't get hugs and kisses from you yet!" I had to ask if Daddy told him to tell me that and nope, there was no set up.

My heart melted!

What a wonderful Christmas! I am truly blessed! Thank you God for all that you have given us!
Merry Christmas!
