Dear H and O,

It was a wonderful Christmas! We’ve had a fantastic Christmas  season, actually… we’ve had some wonderful times celebrating as a family — I didn’t take very many pictures, though, because I decided that I wanted to enjoy the moments with you without the distraction of trying to capture every second with photos. Believe me, we had a grand time in the days leading up to Christmas!

On Christmas Eve, we ate dinner at Nana and Papa’s and went to church. On Christmas Day, we woke up and opened presents and then had a big Christmas dinner here, with Grandma and Jiddoh, Nana and Papa, Ken and Marcia, Uncle Ramsey and Aunt Lisa, Charlie, Alex and Oliver! It was a great time!

Love you,
Mama

Aunt Lisa helped your cousins pick out this American Doll just for you — she looks like you and even wears glasses like yours! (Although yours were missing over Christmas!)
