"Who hears these words of mine & puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, & the winds blew & beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine & does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, & the winds blew & beat against that house, & it fell with a great crash."

Matthew 7:24-27

Christmas #2 and #3/Christmas Day

On Christmas Day we celebrated Christmas two times. In the morning we got up and headed over to Ashley's parents house to have Christmas with Ashley's parents and brother. We had a great time with many laughs and again were very blessed with the presents that we all received. Some of Kyler's favorites were his mirror, basketball hoop, and camouflage fleece jacket. After presents, Ashley's mom made brunch for all of us, Kyler took a nap and then we just hung out for a while. Around 3:00, we then headed up to Waverly to Ashley's cousin's house to have Christmas #3 with Ashley's Mom's side of the family. This celebration was a little more crazy as there were five kids under the age of 8 there! Next year Kyler will be in on the craziness as well! All together there were 22 of us there to celebrate-from Ashley's grandma who just turned 94 down to Kyler, 8 months-and four generations of the Arthur family. Overall, we had a busy but great Christmas Day and returned home around 8:30 pm. Can't wait for next year when Kyler is a little bigger and will be able to understand Christmas even more! :)
Hmmm....I wonder how I can get that open...

Waiting patiently :)
