And unto us a child is born...

Merry Christmas, everyone! What a wonderful season -- we always love celebrating the birth of our Savior and contemplating the miracles that had to be in order for Him to get here and to be a sign to us. We love this verse from Isaiah that foretold His birth:

"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace." Isaiah 9:6

We pray that He is truly your mighty God, everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace.

Mia had a fabulous Christmas this year. She talked of it being Jesus' birthday and sang "Happy Day to you" (Mia's version of "Happy Birthday") to Jesus every night. How cute is that? She loved giving and receiving presents and all the cookies that went along with the many celebrations that we were blessed to attend. Here are some pictures.

Can we please open the presents now, Daddy?


She was still quite careful opening this year.

Cheesin' and openin' A multi-tasker

Oh yeah. Santa knows what Mia likes. And Mark.

She's awfully confused by the whole thing.
But who cares?! There are choo-choos!

Cookies for breakfast. Oh yeah! The tradition continues...

She did this completely without prompting. She is officially a member of the "dork family."


Mia is approximately 16 quarts.
Oh yes, she is a big fan of the cookies.
We have more pictures from the other celebrations, but they aren't on the computer yet. Soon!
