Merry Christmas!

It was a Merry Christmas at the Disque household this year!  It was fun to see the kids excitement this year as we tried to put them to bed Christmas Eve night.  It was a late night because we attended our church's 9:00 pm service, it is a small church so they only offered one service and it was a bit late for our little ones, but it is Christmas Eve, so we went.  Adam's mother and I participated by playing the chimes and singing while people arrived to celebrate.  I have never been complemented on my singing voice, so this was due to the church being small and they needed some extra hands to ring the chimes not because there is any hope for my ability to sing...  It was fun and I only had a few missed chimes:-)

On Christmas Eve we made preparations for our Christmas meal and baked and decorated a birthday cake for Jesus.  It was a fun day, but we were all really looking forward to Christmas and a visit from Santa!

Santa did come, and the kids were so excited.  Our families all went to such special effort to send gifts for the kids and still made it special for us even though we are so far away.  We also are blessed having Adam's mother here, since a holiday is not a holiday without family around.  We are truly grateful she was here and made it special for us!  Hopefully the pictures will help tell some stories:-)

Merry Christmas!
We made lots of Christmas cookies this year. 

We decorated Jesus's birthday cake!


Santa surprised the kids with a Christmas Train around the the tree!  

 The stocking isn't that big, Mariah is just petite!  

It warmed up for a nice walk.

Time to play in the snow!

 Snow slide!  

Go Grammie!
