For the Journey


Any day spent with you is my favorite day. So today is my new favorite day. ~A.A. Milne

"You crown the year with Your goodness, and Your paths drip with abundance." ~Psalm 65:11
Attempting to take a picture of a 2 year old and a 1 week old for a Christmas card was a little easier said than done. The best picture of Mason was the worst picture of Hannah Kate, and the best picture of Hannah Kate was the worst picture of Mason. But I think we still managed to get a cute picture none-the-less.
The day after we brought Hannah Kate home, we decorated our Christmas tree. It got off to a slow start though. I thought Mason would be excited to put his new Mickey Mouse ornament on the tree, but he was not excited at all. He wanted to play with it instead and had no intention of putting it on the tree. So we had to put it up for awhile and begin with some generic ornaments before he was ready to put his special ornaments on the tree.
Mason loves his baby sister so much! He often asks to hold her. They are both wearing their Christmas PJs in this picture. You can't see it, but Hannah Kate's pajamas say, "Baby's First Christmas," and they have a little bear holding a Christmas ornament on them.

I wanted to get a picture of Mason in his Christmas outfit, but he kept acting silly so this was the best we could do.Hannah Kate, on the other hand, was more than willing to pose for a picture in her Christmas gown. It has been a lot of fun dressing Hannah Kate in her cute girl outfits. This one is compliments of her Aunt Barbara.

Merry Christmas!

Seth, Julie, Mason and Hannah Kate
