Merry Christmas

We had a great, if low key, Christmas this year. Sachiyo's sister, Misaki, and her family came down from Vegas to spend the holidays with us. Of course, everyone got sick so it was a typical Christmas.


Tate opened his presents...



Hana opened the dishwasher....she likes that better than any of her presents.



We decorated cookies and just enjoyed being a family together for the holidays.

Sion and Hana in their Christmas dresses. We tried to get a cuter picture of Hana, but she wouldn't stand still (it's too much fun walking, I guess).

Christmas Day

Christmas was great. Tate let us sleep in until about 0830. Awesome. We went out and Tate tried to open all of the presents...he is so helpful. Thank you to everyone. Cashus was a little stressed out at first. So he destroyed one of his presents right away...pretty typical. After that he calmed down a bit and the rest of his presents have survived. Ted's box was found on the front porch in the morning. I guess Santa couldn't get through the door and we don't have a chimney.

The evening ended with some friends asking us over for dinner. We had a great time. Sean made some great lasagna (secret family recipe) and we really enjoyed the company. Thank you Rodgersons.

It was a Merry Christmas and We hope you all had the same
