Christmas

We had a nice Christmas.  We had church at 8am and enjoyed an hour long musical Sacrament meeting program. Afterwards we came home and attempted to take a family Christmas picture before opening presents.

“Attempt” at a family Christmas photo…lol.

The kids raided their stockings and opened their presents.  We spent the rest of the day enjoying being together as a family.

Legos were popular gifts for Daddy and Joseph.

My Little Pony was popular with the girls. They got a My Little Pony house too which Mommy got for a ridiculously great price. That in itself is a miracle in Jakarta where imported toys cost at least 50% more than they do in the U.S.

Santa made it all the way to Jakarta and brought all the kids Nerf guns and…

Mommy made out like a bandit this year with an ipad2 from Daddy!  Funny how everyone but Mommy is playing with the ipad…lol.

Later we went downstairs to the rec room to play ping pong.  The kids also like playing in the small ball pit.

It was a fun day.  Joseph said it was not the best Christmas because he did not get to go to Nai-Nai and Yeh-Yeh’s house and play with his cousins.  Oh…he also said there was no snow. It doesn’t snow that often in Texas, but it has on occasion and the kids remember that.  Unfortunately, there are only 2 seasons in Indonesia…wet and dry.  We are defiinitely having no problems keeping warm this holiday season.
