December 28, 2008

Christmas has came and gone once again. This year was a lot better year then last. Mark was unemployed most of last year so it was a struggle to afford a nice Christmas for the girls. In fact on Christmas last year Mark had only had his job at Presbyterian Community Care Center for only 22 days. Along with celebrating Christ's birth we were able to celebrate the birth of our first son and a one year anniversary of Mark being employed.

Mark was more excited to watch the girls open their presences then his own. He wroke a lot Christmas night to see if it was time to for the girls to wake up and open presences. He hasn't woke up that often the night before Christmas since he was a child. Allyssa got the mermaid barbie doll she has been asking for all year and Ashlee got the baby doll she has been asking for all year. Michelle and Mark got the best gift of all, Kaden. Since Christmas Allyssa has got up every morning asking if santa came again. She hasn't quite grasped the concept that Christmas is once a year.

The new year is fast approaching and we would like to wish everyone a happy new year. We will be setting our new year resolutions as so many others will be and hopefully we will be able to keep them.
