Very Merry Christmas

This was a very fun Christmas! It was especially fun since Damon could hardly fall asleep with excitement. Damon is so funny, he always insists that we leave Carrots for Santa's reindeer (he's always thinking!)
It was so fun to have the kids light up with each gift. Damon was so excited to get his double light-saber he's been wanting for two years now (Mom was hoping he'd loose interest... not so). Kylie's big gift was a big girl Princess bike, which the weather was nice enough to ride it! So much for a white Christmas.
Our family favorite breakfast food is Crepes and here William is trying to help daddy!

Both sides of the family were very generous in the many gifts that we all received.
This was truly a very Merry Christmas! Thanks to everyone and hope everyone had a festive Holiday!

Christmas Eve at Spence's

At Alicia's family's house they have the tradition of playing out the nativity with all he grandkids. This is the video from that.

Damon also played a fun holiday song included below.

They also got some fun toys from Autumn and Doug and Braxton. Damon and Kylie love their gifts, not something I would have thought they would have liked.

Damon's Basketball

Damon has really taken a liking to playing basketball. He kept asking us to let him play on a team. We haven't done that yet, but I did take him to the church to play. The young men were nice enough to let him play and even make sure he got the ball some. I decided to video tape and you can see why he likes it so much.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

This is what it's like at our house at Christmas time.... wait, at Easter, Halloween, and Thanksgiving too. We LOVE Eggnog here! William is definitely one of the family.
Christmas is such a wonderful and magical time of year! I love how our home smells of cinnamon, sweets and Christmas music playing in the house. The Christmas tree all lite up and Christmas decorations spread throughout the house (thanks to the kids and cat!)
This time of year it does seem as others are more kind and happier. May each of you reading this have a wonderful holiday. We are so blessed to remember our Saviors birth and what his life means for each of us. May you have a wonderful Christmas and know that we love you!
Love,
The Jackman's

Bye Bye Organ

It is done!! The unused, slightly damaged Organ of Grandma Jackmans left our home today. It was a bitter sweet moment. Sure it's insainly heavy, and took up a little room, but it was a nice Organ and one that was very special to dear Grandma Jackman. I was unable to hear Grandma play the piano or Organ since joining the family, but I've heard from many people about what a wonderful player she was. We are happy that her Organ is going to be repaired and used in a loving family!
