Christmas

Christmas at our house was very exciting this year!!! The girls were so much fun!!


Oakley now understands who Santa is and was very excited that he remembered to bring her a "real stuffed animal lion" as she calls it. Oakley had been wanting this lion for months after seeing it on a commercial. She carried it all day on Christmas and hasn't yet to leave it alone for very long. I'm so glad that she likes it!!


When asked what Kennedy wanted, she replied "um presents". "What kind of presents?" I would ask, "um, a dolly". "Is there a certain dolly that you want"? I would coax. "a princess dolly" she would say. Later she expressed that she loved barbie dolls and so as you can see in the back ground, she got some barbie furniture and barbies from Santa and a few other items from us, one being a dollar store Mickey Mouse, that was a big hit. Kids are sooo cute!!


This is the Kids on Christmas night in the Pajama's that Grandpa and Grandma Kunz gave them. Notice that Oakley is still holding her little lion. Lol

One excited, one tired, and one a little scared.

I thought Spencer looked so big in this picture. I can't believe he's not a tiny little baby anymore. I love my family so much!! This year Christmas was extra special with Spencer around. He has been such a blessing in our home. I couldn't help but feel extra gratitude to My Heavenly Father this Christmas season for making Spencer all better. I can not put into words the love I have for my Savior. These last few months I have seen so many miracles and can not deny that our Heavenly Father answers our prayers.

MERRY CHRISTMAS Everyone

Hey, everyone looks so cute. Spencer is adorable! I am so sorry that we have not been down to see you all! At least one of us has had a cold since he came home. Give him big hugs and kisses for us and hopefully the colds will go away and stay away! We love you all and miss you!

Cute pictures. Oakley does love her lion! When she came over to play the other day she had it with her and she and Ali played with it! I don't think they ever put it down.

Glad you had a good christmas.

The picture of Spencer, Oakley and Wray made me laugh because Spencer does look worried! So cute.

Hey Cort! I loved seeing your blog and getting updates on your family! It's so fun to see you as a mom and see your kids growing up! Remember how we thought we'd be neighbors when we were parents and that our kids would play together. =)I miss being near enough to play with your kids and hang out with you! I can tell that you are a great mom! I'm so glad to see that Spencer is doing well! We were praying for your family during that scary time! I agree that God does listen to and answer our prayers! He's such a personal God and that is so amazing!
Joel and I will be coming down to visit around the 4th of July. We'll definitely have to plan a time to get together. =)
Miss you friend! ~Sarat
