Christmas 2016

We had a wonderful Christmas in 2016.  It was very busy and full of service and friends which made if even better.

On Christmas Eve we made cookies and delivered them to the staff at the hospital Sam is over in Shamokin.   We wanted to thank all the employees that worked over the holiday.

Then we came home, at Chinese food, opened our jammies and watched a movie together as a family.



On Christmas morning we had to wake up and get ready for Church, but first the girls got to see their new rooms!  A couple days before Christmas I got a phone call from an elf saying that I needed to pack a bag for each girl and they had to sleep on the couch until Christmas morning, because the elves needed to work in their rooms.

So Christmas morning, they ran upstairs to discover that Grace and Lilly's room only had one bed in it, and Pearl's room had bunk beds.



So Grace got her own room (until baby #4 comes along) and Lilly and Pearl get to share!



They got to open their stockings and then we got ready for church and headed out the door.
After church we went with the Koster's back to Shamokin and took lunch to the employees.  The girls loved seeing everyone and wishing them a Merry Christmas.

After that we got to come home and open our presents.


Make up!

Pearl asked for a Pink  Unicorn, and Lilly found it and bought it for her!
She was thrilled to pieces.






Grace got a sewing machine for Christmas and she made a bookmark with it.

All in all it was a wonderful Christmas.  We loved being able to serve others and watch the joy on our girls' faces!
