Christmas!

 Christmas was totally a perfectly magical day for us!  We were so happy to have Michelle with us and had a lovely day at home followed up by a glorious feast for dinner at the Carmitchel's!  Of course we needed to have some of Helen's Chex Mix.  Yummmmmmmm.

 The tree all ready to go on Christmas Eve!

 The girls were totally spoiled and got so many wonderful new toys and crafts to play with!  I was spoiled too.  Marcus totally surprised me by getting me a cuisinart food processor that I have been wanting FOREVER!  We don't do gifts for each other for Christmas or birthdays or anything.  Normally if there is something we really want or need we get it through the course of the year so the presents are all about the kids.  He was super sneaky and got it without me knowing and snuck it in the house.  Love that guy.

 Right before Christmas, Oz and Tori came by to say hi and drop of something special for me.  Oz snapped some pictures when we were in the hospital recovering and didn't post this picture (on fb like he did with the others) and instead printed it out and framed it and then brought it by for us.  It is the most beautiful picture of Benson.  I will cherish that picture forever.  Not only does it capture a really special moment in our lives, but it was also captured by someone really special to us.  We have been so blessed by the truly wonderful friends that we have met and made here.  Also did I mention that Oz is Marcus boss?  How many bosses would do something like that?  Seriously.  We have it so good!

Michelle brought some ugly Christmas sweaters for us to wear to Christmas dinner.  So hard for me to post this picture with my still pregnant looking belly, oh well, keeping it real right guys??   C'est la vie!
