Schatz' Family Christmas

Each year the whole Schatz family gets together for a night of exchanging gifts and playing games. It's great fun for all.

Happy New Year's Eve - Baby Elsa Arrives!

What a great New Year's Eve surprise! Jess & Mike's baby arrived 5 weeks early. Precious Elsa is beautiful! We are SO happy that we were still in Ohio for her birth! Mommy and Daddy and Elsa are doing great.

Merry Christmas!

This Christmas was a fun celebration. It was great to have Rachel.....clearly she didn't do much present opening, but as you can see.... she had plenty!



Here's our tree. It's a bit shabby this year since all our decor is packed away in the storage unit. But it's still pretty. Not having all our holiday decorations and such has helped us to remember that Christmas is not about presents and lights and trees. It's about Jesus - the Greatest Gift!

This is Eli - Rachel's FAVORITE Christmas present. (Thanks, Daddy!)

Grandma & Grandpa Schatz came over to Grandma & Grandpa Arntsen's for a yummy meal with friends and family.

Christmas Eve

We continued our annual tradition of spending Christmas Eve with our God-Daughter (Alison) and her family. She's a cutie!

Matching jammies for the girls!
