Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas! We had such a wonderful time celebrating the birth of our Savior all week! It was so special to have Uncle David in town for a week. We all went to the Christmas Eve service at our church, we enjoyed a delicious Christmas Eve dinner at Papa's house, we opened presents together, we played games, we had family over for dinner and hot tubbing outside at our house, we went to Aunt Kristi and Uncle Ben's house for dinner and to watch the Vikings game, we went to Aunt Karen's house to play a murder mystery game, we went to the Conquer Ninja Gym with Uncle David, and we celebrated Christmas morning with our family. It was an exciting week of family togetherness!


Merry Christmas from the Bossany family!

"For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." 

Isaiah 9:6

Brian always likes to take a fun family Christmas picture!

Eli helped Papa light the candles for the German Christmas Pyramid centerpiece. 

All ready for Christmas morning!

I love seeing the wonder and excitement of Christmas morning through the eyes of these three! This was the first Christmas in a long time that they did not wake us up while it was still dark out! Brian and I were grateful.

Our last advent reading time for the season.


Christmas morning breakfast!


We had so many laughs during the murder mystery night at Karen's house! Karen was the host as we were all aboard a train in Europe, David was a foot doctor from Ireland, I was a receptionist from Sweden, Ben was a chef from Germany, Kristi was a musician from Italy, Brian was a race car driver from Texas, and Dad was a retried English police detective. We found out that Dad did it! It was a fun night and the kids enjoyed watching a Christmas movie while we played the game. Everyone did a great job getting into character.




The kids loved all of the time with Uncle David!


Ninja gym!





Greta enjoyed her last ballet class of the season, they got to have a fun pajama time!


Greta and I as she did her 6th birthday interview video with me. Video to come!


For our geography study we learned about Germany. I made homemade German pretzels and cheese dip. It was scrumptious! 


For our Christmas co-op, we were surprised with a moms Christmas tea! It was delightful.

I went to a painting class with friends from my church house group. We had a fantastic time!




I love Christmas decor.


We got the Christmas socking from our co-op! The kids were excited to get all of the goodies. We then passed on the socking to our friends in the co-op!



The kids big Christmas present was a big bubble hockey game! They have already logged in many hours playing together!



The kids were so happy to hold Pip at Aunt Kristi's house!
