are especially excited about the holiday season this year. Nathan knows well who Santa is and the fact that he is coming to town on Christmas. He has enjoys singing Christmas songs and can even sing most of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer by himself and he knows parts of Santa Claus is Coming to Town. He has also learned that is it Jesus' birthday on Christmas. We had a family night lesson about the symbolism of the candy cane and he now calls the nativity shepards' staffs candy canes.A week ago we went and bought a fresh
Christmas tree. We lucked out and got a terrific tree that had a great shape and even had some little pine cones on it. We had a great time putting our ornaments on the tree and remembering the fun places we've been and things we've done. Nathan has fun looking at the different ornaments and commenting on his favorites.We have also had a good amount of snow so far this year and Nathan has really enjoyed walking in the snow, sledding, and making a "Frosty" snowman. He loves to wear his boots and his snow pants. Nathan has also discovered he likes the taste of snow!
Below are pictures of Nathan outside in the snow, helping make a jello salad, and making a silly face with chocolate around his mouth.

So fun and SO cute!! Sounds like you will have such a fun Christmas now that he can actually understand Christmas! There's nothing like having kids around at Christmastime!! On a side note...looks like you guys have gotten lots of snow!! It was in the high 70's here in Austin so it's hard to remember that it is December!
