BUSY December

This December was a taste of wonderful for what lies ahead for the Zumbiel family. Christmastime with a 3 year old and almost 2 year old was unbelievably fun. It is incredible to see the magic of Christmas through tiny eyes that actually "get it" this year. We had the best time visiting local holiday events and spending time with family and friends. We had much on our list that we never got to, but we made some new memories too. For example, we didn't go to Festival of Lights because we were waiting for a "warmer" night (which never came) but we started a new Zumbiel family tradition of going downtown to visit the trains and enjoy a carriage ride.

Our holidays were crazy by most people's standards, but to us they were fantastic. The girls had a blast and we kept the true meaning at the forefront. One of the highlights this year: We were at a hardware store early in the month and Megan saw a lot of Christmas decorations on the shelf. She hadn't really seen any yet and as soon as she looked at them, she broke into her rendition of the Happy Birthday song singing "Happy Birthday Baby Jesus." It was so very cute. It made me smile and I really wanted to bottle up that moment.

Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday Jesus!

Love, Matt, Jennifer, Anna and Megan
