Christmas 2013

“But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord.” Luke 9:10&11

Merry Christmas!

Our Christmas was filled with food, family, and fun. It was so much fun celebrating Kolt’s second Christmas (We were a little more prepared this year!) With our church having 3 days of services we chose to go on Sunday. The service was absolutely wonderful and they completely out did themselves! Monday, Kyle and I were able to finish the rest of our Christmas shopping. Tuesday we celebrated during the day at Kyle’s parents’ house. That afternoon we went and had Christmas at Kyle’s Granny’s. Tuesday night, Santa visited our house and left lots of goodies for Koltman.  He did not want to wake up on Christmas morning (which probably won’t happen too many more times). Once he did wake up, he walked into the living room and was happy to see all of his toys. After we played with our toys for a bit, we went and ate breakfast at MawMaw and PawPaw’s house. We stayed there for majority of the day. Christmas night my parents came and did Christmas all over again!

We loved being able to spend so much time with our family as we celebrated the birth of our Savior.

Here are a few pictures from Christmas.

The first thing he ran to that morning!

Kolt's First Birthday

From December 8, 2012-December 8, 2013 our sweet boy accomplished so much and filled our lives with joy that we cannot put into words. On December 7, 2013 we celebrated Kolt’s first birthday Mickey Mouse style with family and friends. Along with food and presents, Kolt enjoyed getting to “smash his cake”. It took him a few minutes to get started but once he got the hang of it he loved digging in the cake.

We are so thankful we had so many loved ones at Kolt’s party to help us celebrate this sweet milestone in his life. Here are a few pictures from his special day.

This is the look of success! :)

Lots of presents!

So glad his best friend, Cannon and his family could help us celebrate!

The end of the day ended with Kolt asleep in the truck before we even left. He was so sweet during his party but it definitely wore him out being the birthday boy! We worked so hard at making his party enjoyable for him and I think we succeeded! I already have a few ideas for next year! :)
