Amazing Christmas!

The Angelo household was richly blessed this Christmas season with family and time with friends. It was so much fun to watch it all unfold in the eyes of a 2 year old. Riley would get really excited and yell "Santa coming to Riley's house!" followed quickly by "Happy Birthday Jesus". We took time to read the Christmas Story from Luke, opened the best gift of all - baby Jesus that was wrapped on the tree, and sat around and visited and caught up with family. This truly is the most wonderful time of year! Here are some pictures in no particular order...

Papa & Riley reading a new book
A favorite gift - a front loader that drives itself
A shot of the Christmas outfit - and Great Pop in the background
Our Seattle celebration - led to a Lightning McQueen racetrack
We saw this face A LOT - he LIKES gifts!!
Earlier in the month we went to a Santa breakfast at Daddy's work
Daddy & Riley frosting cookies
My MOPS group gathering - checkout those cute kiddos
Seattle Carousel with Grandpa & Jill
Riley loved it and rode by himself - and then cried when it was over
We hope you and yours had a wonderful Christmas as well. May the JOY of this season carry you into the New Year as we all reflect on the many blessings in our lives. I feel so full (not just of food) right now! I am constantly reminded of the best gift - our Lord and Savior who came as the perfect gift to all of us!
