What a magical holiday! It was so much fun celebrating this Christmas with our family! It still is wild to believe that we have two babies! Gracyn was all hyped up this year for Santa Claus. Luke had been hearing reindeer on the roof for weeks and Gracyn was anxious for him to come. She really got the whole concept this year and requested several gifts from Santa which included a kitchen, Doc - the dwarf from Snow White (yes, Santa and his elves worked really hard in building Doc), a color book and a hat. Grandpa and Grandma B got away from the frozen tundra to join us for the week. We had a wonderful time enjoying the weather with nature and beach walks, park time, and cooking delicious food. Luke prepared the Schipper traditional prime rib and it turned out perfectly thanks to the great coaching from Grandpa Schipper! Grandma B and Gracyn whipped up a batch of monster cookies and Grandpa J and Gracyn made Great Grandma's secret recipe of donuts!!!! YUMMY! We opened lots of gifts and were able to share some fun moments on Skype with Grandpa and Grandma Schipper and Uncle Adam and Katy! We hope you and your family had a magical week. We miss you all! AND are looking forward to the New Year's party at our house. The guest list includes Daddy, Mommy, Gracyn and Wyatt!
