And just like that...it's over

Yep, our Christmas with daddy is done. He left this morning. That was the fastest 15 days ever. BLAH. The good news is that we just have to get through a few days and then Grammie will be here to distract us from missing daddy.
We had great times together while Bob was here: playing with choo choo's at Barnes & Noble, aquarium, cul-de-sac baseball, lots of reading, rough housing, snuggling, special traditions, church, hanging out and just enjoying being all together again! Here's a ton of pictures that explain better than my words.

Daddy's horsey rides are the BEST!


Chilly temperatures don't stop daddy from playing ball with the kiddos


Time for some science experiments


Bob gives the kids free reign on the ginger bread houses, what a mess!

Daddy reads one of our favorites "Dangerous Journey" kids eat ice cream sundaes!

So as you can see we had a most wonderful Christmas! We're so thankful that Bob was able to come home to be with us. Only 3 1/2 months and he'll be home for good!

James enjoyed talking to Bob while he was home. He sure does miss him!
