Christmas with the Kreiders

I want to continue to back track so that I have all of this for the girls to look back on. I know I am about 2 months behind, but please bare with me and enjoy the posts. Our first Christmas celebration was with Jason's family. We had a fantastic meal and a great time visiting with family. The kids had a blast playing together and of course loved opening their gifts. Grandma Nancy way out does herself with the gifts!

Jason and I had to work half the week before Christmas but we came back to DeWitt for Christmas Eve. We had a wonderful swedish meatball dinner with Nancy and her father, Grandpa Owen before heading to Christmas Eve mass. As it was last year, the weather was miserable that evening so we went right home after church before the roads got worse. We unfortunately did not get any good pictures of the girls in their Christmas outfits (I still plan to do that sometime soon) but we did get one of each of them none the less.

Guess Who's 30!?!

I am pleased to welcome my awesome beautiful wife into the 30's!!! Crazy to think, but it sure still seems like we should be more grown up!

Anyways, I wanted to just show a quick glimpse of what these last 3 1/2 years of parenthood has been for us and to thank you Jaclynn for making my life what it is. There certainly doesn't seem like there's a dull moment anymore eh? But I definitely wouldn't have it any other way. We have 2 beautiful daughters who have made our life awesome. Yes, crazy, but awesome no doubt!!! What lies ahead, who knows, but I know that I wouldn't want to take these steps with anyone else.

I hope you enjoy these pics. It's hard picking out only a few, so I didn't. :) Here's a bunch. Happy 30th Dids!!!
