Christmas Morning

Joshua was the first up Christmas morning...7:30 am...which was nice, though Hunter, Hailey, Rylan and myself could have slept a bit longer. I went down first to get the camera and eventually called them down. You can see from the video the excitement of them all! They played for a good 45 minutes with their toys from Santa before we started opening gifts. It was fun to watch Rylan open his, he took his time and would open one gift at a time, check out what he got before moving on to the next. This was a fun year for him because he is beginning to understand who Jesus is and why we celebrate his birth. Enjoy the video, it's not the best, I had to put down the camera in the middle of it because Rylan fell down and started crying, but I was able to catch Hailey say a cute comment about her "Pink" dollhouse. If you listen closely over Rylan's crying you can here it.

Oh, the kids were so excited. I heard Hailey talk about her Pink dollhouse. Hunter and Josh were so good about letting Rylan and Hailey explore their new toys. The video was just perfect. You captured all the greatest times. Lots of love sent your way. Mom

The video is great, cannot believe how the kids have changed so much, know mark was happy to see the kids. Happy New Year cant believe time is passing as it is. Mark will be coming home and John is leaving, we have a lot to keep praying for.
