Merry Christmas Everyone

This year we had to make a deal with Santa to visit us on a different night since Daddy had to work thru the 25th. Here is our Christmas letter...

The 2012 year has been a very fun year for our family. Having another little one around has definitely been a wonderful experience!

Keith is still out at his firehouse. It’s a pretty quiet station, which makes it not very exciting, but he’s on a good shift and enjoys his work buddies. There is a definite camaraderie and this is the first station where we all get together on a regular basis outside of work. He’s also been working at our local training center as an instructor teaching the new recruits, both volunteer and career. He loves it! He got asked to coach the boys’ basketball team at church for this coming year and is looking forward to it.

Joy still subs, but stays at home with the kiddos on a fairly regular basis. She loves it! She spends lots of time doing Joy School with Chris and doing her crafts. She works in the library at church and regularly gets asked to tackle projects where she can get her craft on.

Chris is such an amazing guy. He adores his little sister and is so good with her. He did such a good job when we were in Mickey’s House (Disney World) with her. He made sure she had just as much fun. He’s still a swimmer, but DigDig has incorporated basketball and baseball to the mix. Hopefully this spring he can start peewee baseball. He loves all things Legos, Star Wars is still a hit, Ninja Turtles have joined the mix, and he loves to play videogames. He’s so smart it’s scary!

Sophie is growing like a weed! She has 9 teeth with 3 more molars coming in. 95% of the time there is a smile on her face. She is full of such joy all the time and loves her brother so much. If he disappears and then reappears, she will start yelling and jumping up and down. Music is her favorite thing. She will zone in and start dancing up a storm. She sleeps thru most nights, loves her food (and your food), and has Daddy wrapped around her little finger!

Keith’s mom, Ginny, is still living with us and has enjoyed adding a girl to the family. They are so much more fun to dress up! The girls definitely rule this house! Ginny is such a great grandma and we enjoy having her around.

We hope you have a wonderful holiday season and have a fantastic year to come! Merry Christmas!
