We had such a fun time with O’s first Christmas. It started Christmas Eve at Calvin CRC our home church, where during the solemn singing of Silent night with the lights dimmed and the church lit solely with the members holding candles, Baby O decides to sing along AHHHHH BWAAAH DHAAAAH. Since everyone at church seems to love him the only comments were about how cute he was singing along. Then we went to Mor Mor and Opa Johnson’s to open a first round of gifts. He laughed like crazy while he helped me tear open his gifts. On Christmas morning we opened gifts at home, then went to GG Burkall’s for more food and gifts. Then we had fun with a sled ride around the yard. Lots of laughing here too. (The hardest I’ve ever heard him laugh though, was watching me shovel the driveway, his laughter definitely made the chore more fun!) We also traveled down to Indy to have a Christmas celebration with the Adams side of the family, again, lots of laughs!

Forgot to tell you - and Roger - how terrific I thought your Christmas family pics were! You are lucky to have such a super photog at your disposal!
