Christmas at the Farm

We had a wonderful Christmas in Illinois, at Steve's grandfather's farm. The Kleins finally met Baby Klein, we played in lots of snow, Bethany saw her beloved kitty cats (always a new litter when she's there), we went bowling, Bethany got all the men to gather around the TV for Beauty and the Beast, and of course we sat around a lot catching up and just enjoying being with family we don't see very often. Thank you Nah Nah, Poppa, Gigi, and Grandpa for helping us get there!!!

Santa came to our house early!

Santa came to our house early since we spent Christmas in Illinois this year. He also left a very exciting note for Bethany (sarcasm)...thanks a lot "Daddy-O"

CLARIFICATION

OK CRAZY PEOPLE...we have received comments on the "bethany praying over her brother picture" and want to just clarify that we do actually have a NORMAL 2 1/2 year old daughter....that was steve trying to be funny...the picture is actually of bethany kissing him in between moments of screaming in his face!!

Christ the Savior is Born

Merry Christmas everyone! We are about to pull out of the house to drive to Birmingham and then catch a plane to ice-and-snow-covered Chicago. We always enjoy seeing our family up there, and it should be an exciting trek with a 2 year old and a 3 month old on the plane. Anyway, that's it. Just wanted to say we love you all and hope that the reality of our Savior's birth fills your thoughts, hearts and minds today and all year.
