Ethan did so great this year! He wasn't scared at all, he sat on Santa's lap, told him what he wanted and even wished him a Merry Christmas, miracles do happen!

Alec's experience wasn't so great! This picture is classic!

Merry Christmas!

Decorating the Tree!Josh taking out the Christmas tree.

Thanks to my friend Katie Keil we had a free Christmas tree this year. We were a little worried with the condition that it was in, but it turned out perfect! Ethan and I decorating the tree.

Ethan had so much fun this year decorating! He was so careful and did a great job!

Us with our tree all decorated. (Alec was asleep.)

We let Ethan put lights out on his bedroom balcony. He loved it! Little did we know that there was live wire hanging out, you can see josh in the background checking out his arm, he got a really good shock!

Yeah for Christmas time!
