Christmas

Christmas was nice and very exciting. The kids got up around 6:50 am and the opening of gifts commenced at 7am. The kids loved everything they opened including the 2 new blue bikes and the pink scooter. They were outside riding around the cul-de-sac by 9:30. Zachary has us amazed. He's been practicing, but his biking skills blew us away today. After holding the bike so he could get on and get started, the boy started riding. We took the bikes/scooter to Miami and let the kids show Grandma and Grandpa Brown and the rest of the family. Zachary rode even better than he had at our house. By the end of the visit, both boys had taken a lap or two around the neighborhood without stopping. Stopping appears to be Zachary's biggest difficulty right now, but it won't last long with his determination. We had a nice celebration in Miami and Ben was so thrilled to get his long awaited DS. All 3 kids got Zhu Zhu pets from Santa and they were a big hit. My niece and nephew loved them too. It is 10:12pm and Courtney is just now on the verge of sleep. It's been a long day.

Christmas Eve - Where's the rooster?

We went to church on Christmas Eve as usual. The boys participated in the Christmas play. Ben was a shepherd and Zack was a rooster. When Zack got to the front of the church with the other barnyard animals, he proceeded to correct the Associate Minister who called him a chicken. He soon found a hiding spot. Can you find the rooster? After church, my parents and grandfather came back to our house for some Christmas Eve dinner and Santa preparations.

Tuesday, we went to the furniture to find a new tv stand. While we were there, Courtney decided to experiment with a new hairstyle. Okay, so it wasn't a new hairstyle, but a static problem. We thought it was funny and the boys were jealous that their hair would not stand on end.

Courtney climbing a tree in her dress at church with Ben and Zack. It still amazes me how she likes to dress up, but still keep up with her brothers.

Zachary is on the top row towards the right. He is to the left of the girl in the Santa hat.
