Frohe Weihnachten!

Just here to share a few pictures of our Christmas! We are packing up today to spend a week in the Alps so I knew I needed to get these up for everyone to see. Thank you to all who sent presents, you made our Christmas so special with your heartfelt and meaningful gifts! Our family is truly blessed! We love and miss you all! Merry Christmas!

Dave and the kids made gingerbread cookies for Santa (Dave said he requested them)

Mason getting a little help, he was piling the icing on!

Emma believes she is a pro at this...

First glimpse of what Santa had left...Mason's pirate castle is hidden by Emma

Oh Lincoln Logs for Dave and Mason! ;)

Waiting patiently....

Daddy I got a gun!!!

sorry mom...

the camera card reader ate my pictures...I took a gazillion pics of Emma's dance performance last night and was left with just one after transferring them over. At least this one is a doozy! ;) Love you all!

Daddy's home!

Eating Brats in Nuremberg

Right after landing, they are glued to his side...

Patiently waiting with their signs...

I took a lot of time off! The last few weeks have been filled with farewell dinners, Christmas parties, finals, projects, Kinder projects, etc. But I am glad to say that all that craziness is OVER! I am also very happy to say that our time with Dave will begin very soon! I hope I haven't jinxed myself with that, but should be arriving within the week, I hope. :) I'm including some videos because I have been horrible with taking pictures lately. Hope you enjoy them!!!
