they came!

it was a festive morning when we got to open our swiss christmas bags!  i love this tradition and i look forward to it so much each year!
"what do you mean i have to wait until next yr?"
heehee
nate took about 1 second before he tore his bag open and dug out the chocolate.  the great part about it was how i was able to wrap the swiss bag into the kings landing trip, on the trip it was explained how kids got an orange and an apple (if they were lucky!) and nuts/dried fruit was a yearly treat.  so i was able to show nate hoe blessed we are to live in time where we each get a bag instead of a family sharing one.  anyways, we studied history and culture thurs morning!

thanks for the bag nana and papa (who i know helped put them together.....by eating the chocolate...haha)  we love you guys!

and now the christmas season starts!
