We visited the spectacular lights display at the Lake DeGray houseboat dock with some friends. Even Santa was there, although Micah was speechless when he handed him a candy cane. I guess it's a good thing he'll have another chance to talk to Santa when he visits his class tomorrow!
Well, it wasn't really Christmas morning, but it might as well have been. We always open our gifts to each other before leaving for whatever holiday destination we're going to that year. So Saturday was the day this time around. We had breakfast and then Micah walked around the corner to find the presents all under the tree! As you can see in this video, he was so excited! At the end of the video he says "Let's pray." Now, I could say that this was because all of those talks about how Christmas is Jesus' birthday had really sunk in. But I think it was really because he knows we pray before we do things like eat dinner so I guess he figured before we get to the presents, we had to pray then too! Who knows? Micah is an equal opportunity pray-er. We thanked Jesus that morning, but later on that night I guess he thought we were leaving a few things out because when we put him to bed, he wanted to thank God for reindeer, presents and Santa, too :-) Anyway, we had fun opening and playing with all of the new things.
Here's a video of him opening his special present from Grammy and Pop Pop Noden:
Merry Christmas and God bless us, everyone!
