Dunbar Christmas

We celebrated with my Dad's side on Christmas Eve hanging out and having fun. The kids did an exchange and Papa and Mema got the kids all something as well. We took a trolley ride that night to check out the lights downtown and Franke Park. It's a fun tradition that we started last year.

Stauffer Christmas

Our Christmas was different this year with my Mom and Tim. Instead of doing our usual exchange of gifts between our own children, we all adopted a family from the Mission Church to buy for. It felt really good to give to those in need. Our family has three girls ages 5, 3, and 3 months. My Mom and Tim rented a room at the Guesthouse where we all had dinner, gave our gifts, and danced to music with balloons flying around everywhere...it was a great time! It is such a neat lesson to teach our kids and we look forward to doing it again next year

Papa Tim and his camel told the story

Brielle and Camden sure got a kick out of it

She had a blast!

Bryce finally loosened up, but was attached to either Jake or I for the most part

Love these cousins so much!

Christmas At Our House

We packed up and made the trip to Fort Wayne for Christmas on the 22nd so we celebrated with our kids at our house on the 21st. I hadn't put any presents under the tree this year because I knew Bryce would rip into them all so when I brought them downstairs and told them they got to open them they were very excited!

Waiting on Daddy to get home

She was always right there ready to help brother open his

She got the princess book that she really wanted!

Playing with his new legos

Yay....roller skates

Thanks Daddy and Mommy for all the great gifts!!

Christmas Program and Ear Tubes

Last week was Brielle's school Christmas program, it was super cute. They sang 6 songs and did very well. We were very proud of our girl. I didn't take many photos because I was too busy trying to video it while Daddy contained Bryce :) Here are a couple shots of our performer!

Her class

The week before last our little guy got ear tubes put in. We got tired of every cold going to an ear infection. It was a very quick (5 min.) procedure, but still scary to have your child put under. He was back to himself after being home about an hour. We hope this helps this winter!!
