Christmas 2015

Christmas 2015 was a hit!  Easy, laid back, lots of family time...just what we needed.  The Christmas season began shortly after arriving home from Aguadilla.  We showed up at Ft. Buchanan ready to buy a live tree, took one look at the looooooong line and said FAKE IT IS!  Our first fake tree. 

Part of what made this season so fun is the outside time.  Our kids have so much fun outside where they have freedom to do what they want! 

We had many activities leading up to Christmas day- Parties, Girl Scout caroling, cookie making, new movies.  The time just flew by!

 Christmas morning we ate a light breakfast, read the Christmas story, opened gifts, and later had brunch with our good friends who are here with us from Omaha.  That evening we walked over to a neighbors house for dessert.
