Christmas Time

We got to cut our own Christmas tree this year! It's the first time in 3 years that we have had a live tree. The kids (and Shane and I) were very excited.

Meghan's first grade class did a Christmas play. The different characters were trying out for the part of tree topper for Santa's tree. It was really cute. Meghan was a flower and did a fabulous job--of course, it was drama!!

I took the 3 little ones to the mall to see Santa--that was a new experience for us too. The mall here has a really neat playground so the kids played while I waited in line (a great way to do it) and then they were all happy to see Santa. Katie asked for gameboy games, Meghan--Baby Alive and Dillan Buzz Lightyear and Transformers.

So far we have had a good Christmas season. It's really nice to be in the states for Christmas--we will even get to spend it with family and friends.

Enjoy the pictures and the video clip of Meg's part in the play.
