Budapest, Christmas Morning
The sun is shining in the windows and the cinnamon buns are cooking in the oven. It is Christmas! Cassie and Jay wake up happy. It is going to be a good day. After eating some yummy cinnamon buns (that turned out okay even with no brown sugar), we gave our gifts to Jesus- Cassie did a dance, and then we talked about the angels that appeared the day that Jesus was born. Then it was present time. Cassie opened up Barbie Bride (for the wedding obsessed girl) and Jay opened up a Hot Wheels Boat (for the transportation obsessed). Then they got one gift to share – a game of memory with cards from the movie Cars (which is the new favorite in the house!- not Cars 2 just the first movie, they haven’t seen number 2 yet).
It is always hard to be away from extended family on Christmas day, but we are thankful for our little growing family. Hard to believe next year we will have three kids on Christmas morning.
Merry Christmas everyone!
Teaching Adventures 
Love you guys, just spent some time looking at your baby pictures and other recent blogs. Your pictures are wonderful! Feel all warm and fuzzy! Loved your Christmas card, yes we hung it on the tree, couldn’t pack it away with the tree though. This is the first year I have not left the tree up for Ukrainian Christmas. We had too much company comming today I could fit 3 people in the space that tree took up. Carol Miles is going back to Israel and we had an open house for her today.
I just finished doing the oneyearbibleblog.com in my Inductive Bible, you can’t even know how for the blessings of your teachings have gone, but they sure have blessed me. Thank you for your warm Christmas blessings and Happy New Year!
Last time I saw Cassie she ran to me with open arms. Give them some of these for me. OXox OXox
