Bonjour,

Merry Christmas!  We hope you have all had a wonderful day.
We let the kids empty their stockings this morning.  Then, I finished getting the cream cheese bread ready for breakfast.  After breakfast, we opened presents.  The kids were so fun to watch.  They had a great time.  When Gilbert opened a bag of army men, he said, "That's just what I wanted!"  Both boys got a police set.  They had to put everything on and then run right over to show the Post boys.  Bonnie took her doctor kit to help everyone feel better.  We opened some presents over at the Posts' house.  Then, I made rolls for lunch.  We went over to the Posts house for Christmas dinner.  Jennifer made pork roast, hashbrown casserole, and broccoli and cheese.  It was all very good.  We had a good time of fellowship.
I am still not quite back to 100% yet.  I was ready for nap time.
We went back over to the Posts' house this evening for sandwiches and dessert.  We had a birthday cake for Jesus.  We came back home and called our families.  Now, we are ready for bed.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
