Christmas 2014

 Last year we simplified our Christmas season out of necessity. Having two tiny babies complicated everything so we chose our activities carefully, used only our favorite decorations, and really scaled back on gifts.  We had such a wonderful time that we made the decision to keep things simple again this year. Five kids is crazy enough without adding long lines, crowded malls, and fighting for parking spaces!


This time of year is so exciting!
