'Tis More Blessed to Give than to Receive


Christmas morning had a lot more "hustle and bustle" than usual. My family was all here, except Michael (who's stationed in Alaska and couldn't make it home). Carrie also brought her boyfriend Lcas. With all the commotion, Ethan and Jesse didn't even open all their presents--it was just too much for them. (So we've got a head start on next year's Christmas shopping!) =) This picture captures my favorite moment of the day . . . Ethan was thrilled to death to give Heath his present. A remote controlled airplane that he'd been keeping secret for weeks. We all had a fun morning together and then packed up and headed to North Carolina to join the rest of the Stuenzi clan.
