Our First Christmas...

...celebration for this year was this weekend with the Merrick side. When the kids awoke from their naps they were very excited to open their gifts. Since Mom & Dad were unable to be with us in person we were able to enjoy the next best thing...their presence via the web. We gave them a webcam so that they could enjoy watching the kids open their presents and be able to celebrate with us at least a little.

Stanton, Abigail and Aubrey sit in front of the computer and visit with Grammie and Poppa.

Aunt Kim & Uncle Brian get a squeeze from Stanton.
The little ones had worked up an appetite from all their present opening so we enjoyed a very good lasagna meal. The many gifts were enjoyed by everyone but the best gift ever was the opportunity to be together and anticipate Jesus' birth that is quickly approaching.
