Lots of Pre-Christmas fun!

The boys were able to go to a special Hope Kids event where they had Santa come in and read a few stories while having cookies and milk with the kids at a really pretty resort.  Because Santa always knows the best resorts to travel to :).

Christmas lights with Grandma and Grandpa Olimb!

Asher, the photog :).

Our annual Christmas dinner with our Hoverson family!!  The kids are getting so big!

Nativity scene at our church!

Attempted making our own Christmas ornaments with a homemade dough…major fail.  Michael’s pre-made ornaments FTW!

Asher and Beck had their Great Grandma, both their grandparents, and their Auntie Dana here for Christmas this year!!  Seriously.  And, they got to have two Christmas celebrations.  How lucky are they!

When Grandma and Grandpa Necas were here, they rented a house with a heated pool…which was about the best Christmas gift!  The boys swam their little hearts out!  And, one day the pool was so warm, it was like swimming in a really large hot tub.  Truly.  We were all a little red when we got out, ha!  It was so fun!

He had a momentary lapse in his joy, resulting in one of the most hilarious sequences of pouting, ha!

Our sweet Paxon.  We spend a lot of time over the Christmas season remembering his life, and how he changed ours.  He was irreplaceable.  We still miss him so much, and wish things would be different.  One day it will be.  God is on a mission to make things right in this world.  One day, there will be no more tears.
