Christmas Morning!!

We each had our own stockings, even Naomi!

The gingerbread house even made it intact until Christmas!

LOVE these photos of our children on the steps on Christmas morning, a family tradition from my childhood and my mom's childhood. :)

Wow! Two stockings! With hot wheel cars!

Naomi's First Christmas present from her brother, a singing snoopy dog :)

YES! The BEST team in history!

It is so fun that Jonathan loves family!

I think he was quite happy to have that Audio Book!

Can you tell that I have a dog whisper fan and a spiderman fan in my family?

Life in MA in December

 Jonathan proud that he got Naomi to take a pacifier. :)

 Jacob happy that he got Naomi to sleep. :)

 Naomi, happy to be awake!

Christmas decorating and Cookie Making

 We always have fun decorating my parents tree when we are home for Christmas! This time we got to do it two years in a row!

 Cookie decorating with Grandma

YUM! All gone!

School Christmas program and Gingerbread house building!

 Jonathan enjoyed going to Preschool two times a week at the Berkshire Christian School at our home church. Here they are singing a Christmas song for all the Grandparents and visitors.

 Jonathan loved going to preschool to play with all the other children and learn.

 The preschool made a Christmas tree full of gingerbread men from all over the world.. Jonathan made a PNG Man.

 We had the privilege of building a gluten free ginger bread house together as a family, very fun! There were a few families from our church getting together for the occasion.

 Although Naomi didn't really know what was happening. :)

 But the Devine men did a great job with the construction!

 Jonathan at the candy table picking out the decorations for the house.

 The finished product! And we weren't allowed to eat it for a whole week, not until Christmas!!

Bethlehem Night @ Hope Church

 Almost every year our church converts their gym into Bethlehem. It is a fun time and a great outreach to the community!

Lots of fun things for the kids to do!

 With live donkeys!

Jonathan saw a beggar steal some money from one of the store owners, so he was sure to tell the soldier about it. :)
