Christmas Tree Hunting

Today Matix picked out his first Christmas tree. We got the one he stared at the most. :) We are getting excited about ALL of our Christmas days.

First is ours (Paul, Jessie and Matix) the day before Christmas eve..

Second is Christmas at Paul's parents house in Buckeye, Arizona on Christmas day with Lee, Stacy and Colleen.

Third is "Kent Christmas" at Jessie's dads house in Wisconsin with Chuck, all Jessie's sisters, brothers-in-law, nieces and nephews.

Fourth is Christmas at Jessie's moms house in Wisconsin with Kim, Louie, Evie, Jolie and her kiddos....

Wow! We are excited and anxious about our busy winter break, but it will be great to see all our family. :) Updates to come on the plane ride with a 3 month old...yikes!

The Nativity


On Saturday, our church put on a play of the Nativity... We were asked to play the parts of Mary, Joseph and the baby Jesus. Although Jessie's acting skills were not very good :) and Paul's beard looked hilarious, it was so much fun.

Matix did very well and stayed quiet the whole time, right up until just after this picture was taken. The choir (dressed as angels behind us) finished their last song and Matix let out a loud cry. :) Everyone in the audience thought it was cute.
