Christmas Day Via Skype

We skyped in with G & G Neuharth and Auntie Jess (and Auntie Missy here with us) on Christmas Day as the kids tore open presents from them.  It was fun sharing in the moment with family, even if not in person.  Very thankful for this modern tool to keep us close on the holidays that we can't make it home for...and also the very ordinary days of our lives.  Joel received a saxophone and a Bibleman mask and cape...along with a Bibleman Jr. DVD.  He was very happy and impressed!  Elianna got a purple pettiskirt, a Christmas Boz DVD, and additional Little People sets that all coordinate...a coach and a wedding scene with more cute figures to pretend with.  I'm sure it will make for many fun times in the next few years...especially when she has playdates with other girls!  Thanks you family who shared a piece of the holidays with us via Skype and the phone.  We love and miss you!
