Christmas Time at the Kalke House

We love Christmas at our house. The kids are so excited and I am constantly getting asked when it's going to be Christmas, and when can we open presents, and what is santa going to bring, and what are you going to get me, and I could go on and on. Either way we love it. The kid's excitement makes it more fun for us. We went out this year and cut down our own tree. Larry got to feel like a man as he was cutting it down, and the kids thought they were pretty cool because they got to help dad pull the saw a few times each. Rhyan was quite impressed when she realized that tree was now sitting in her front room, and then the lights just closed the deal for her. This should be a fun Christmas for her now that she is getting big enough to be excited about things. We have the Elders coming over for dinner on Christmas Eve and then we will do the Christmas story with them. We have them for Christmas Eve every year, and really enjoy it as it helps us to have the true spirit of Christmas in our home. We can't wait, and we will be sure to post more pictures as we take them!
