Christmas with the Fishers'

Another Christmas, another whirlwind. We made it to six, yes count them, six Christmas's this year. Fisher extended family, Fisher's immediate family, Kauffman (MOM), Our Christmas (me, Brett and Sadie), Kauffman (DAD), Kauffman extended family...whew! Now we can sit back and relax right? Oh no, there's too much Christmas clean up to do, New Years Meal to make and then it's off to Ca to visit Brett's brother's family for Christmas. So I guess I was wrong, that makes it seven Christmas's! This use to be so much fun when I was little, my how things change the older you get :)
It was a great time though, seeing everyone we love. Lots of pictures and memories to cherish. Brett was sick for about two weeks before Christmas, praise the Lord he recovered just in time. He lost about 12 pounds I think, I lost track, but boy does he look GOOD! No New Years resolution for him to lose weight.....just me :( JK.
Sadie was a dream this year. Hallelujah! She allowed other people to hold her and played with the kids...it was so great. I love when my child forgets I am in the room.
Here are some of the hundreds of pictures taken this Christmas:

What else...

Jeremy painted these awesome paintings for everyone in the family. He prayed over them and painted what came to mind about each one of us. They are really beautiful. Although I can't say much about mine...since my painting is still in his head and not even started yet, but everyone else's is great :) Maybe my painting is about patience.
