Christmas Joy in the Mail

The one thing about living far away is the romantic notion of getting Christmas gifts in the mail. It feels like a movie somedays (minus the package coming in the falling snow from a overly happy mailman)

Aunt Denise and Uncle Jim sent Max the COOLEST card! He gets to press a button and it plays Rudolph. Let's just say we heard Rudolph a lot yesterday

Auntie Holly, Uncle Mike and Tyler sent an AWESOME nativity set just for Max. He absolutely loves it.

He loves opening presents

His favorite part is baby Jesus to which he continually says "Geez Geez Geez" as he carries it around the house.

We also are starting to get Christmas cards in the mail which I LOVE. Christmas cards with family pictures of the kids or the whole family is not a tradition here (but I am still going to do it even though people think it's silly and over the top :) hehehe) so when I get them in the mail here I cherish them! They stay on our fridge all year until the next Christmas when we can update their cute family! Thank you to those that are sending us your cards. I LOVE IT!
