We snapped this photo after the service. These are our munchkins with my best friend's munchkins. Gotta love this crew! Six boys is a ton of fun and a ton of chaos. We're gonna miss the Arthur boys like crazy when we head back to Kenya.
And here's us in front of our Christmas tree. Proof that we were healthy again and dressed in our finest for Christmas Eve. (Yes, flannel is our finest. We spent four years in Duluth, ya know.)
Right before bed we continued our tradition of letting the boys open a present on Christmas Eve - always a new pair of jammies for them to wake up in the next day.
Eli told them to stand like superheroes. Hence Kai's extreme face. He's not angry - just superhero serious.
I absolutely love waking up on Christmas morning with these boys. So much excitement, so much energy, so much squealing! They were the most thrilled with these additions to their Star Wars collection. They played with this stuff the entire morning until it was time to head over Grandma and Grandpa Clark's...
...which prepared them for the lightsaber duel of the year.
And then it was off to Minnesota for Christmas: Round Two. More presents. More cousins. More runaround fun to be had! The boys wasted no time in finding all the weapon toys at Grandma and Grandpa Horn's house. Many a monster was defeated that night.
And guess what - we found snow! There's been next to none in Michigan so far and I promised the boys that Minnesota would have snow. There wasn't any when we first drove into St. Paul, but when we drove another hour north to the farm, the snow came. Our boys had a blast playing outside with their cousins. It was a perfect play-in-the-snow kind of day.
