Christmas

 On Christmas Eve, Josh was a shepherd at our friends' house.

 On Christmas morning, Rachel spent a while with pliers trying to open this box wrapped in wire.

 She was thrilled to find an open-hole flute!  She can finally move up from her student flute that has served her well for 4 years.

 Madi wanted some classics for her collection, such as Les Miserables

 Josh loves his Hobo Tool from the Legges (though they prefer to call it a Scout Tool) and he uses it at every meal.

 Josh loves his 3-D maze ball

 The highlight of our day was skyping with Isaac in Ukraine at 11 a.m.!

 He showed us his nametag and spoke in Russian for us

 Eliza and Madi wanted to go see "Les Miserables" for their 18th birthday.  We loved it!

 Haven't seen the "Hobbit" yet, but Lyrad and Josh are reading it together

Happy birthday to my wonderful twins!
