Happy Holidays!

It has been very busy around the Liezen household this Christmas season. It started a couple of weeks ago with Andrew's preschool play and his role as the donkey. The following week was his Sunday school play, "Angels Aware." We were so proud of all of our angel cousins! Jacob, Nick, Hannah and Andrew did a wonderful job! Andrew had a case of the yawns while on stage, but managed to sing a few lines too!

On Sunday we had another fun Christmas celebration with the Williams' family. Uncle Scott (dressed as Santa) took us out on the trailer to go caroling around the neighborhood. It was very, very wet with freezing rain, but we had a good time and many laughs. It's those kind of family moments that make for great stories and memories.

Christmas Eve was spent with the Heimbigner clan. Abigail had a beautiful Christmas dress and looked quite precious. She had lots of help opening presents from her cousins and brother and slept through most of church. When we got home, Andrew had to prepare the plate of cookies and oranges for Santa. When he awoke on Christmas morning, he was excited that Santa had delivered a new kitty (stuffed friend), but was concerned that Santa didn't put anything in mommy and daddy's stockings! Oops!

Christmas day and night brought lots of new snow. Andrew had fun making snow angels and eating fresh snow, and Abby was all smiles when she got to join in a little outdoor fun.

Abigail has officially outgrown her bath time in the kitchen sink. She has discovered the joy of kicking and splashing water. Her other new fascination is her tongue. She has figured out that she can make some pretty funny noises and lots of bubbles!
