Christmas Eve morning we went to decorate, read the Christmas Story to "Nathan", cry, and pray. Jacen still doesn't understand what is going on, so he was excited to run around, stayed with us a for a bit for me to read, and then was ready to return to the warm car. For those you who have not seen the tombstone before, Nathan's part is in the middle. We chose to buy 3 plots and surround Nathan when we pass.
Daddy and Jacen telling Nathan that they love him.
Before bed, we took some pics.
Getting the cookies that we baked earlier and milk ready for Santa!!!

After church, we opened presents. Jacen with his Mater and candy from Santa!!

Jacen opening his presents (broom, mop, dustpan, vacuum, and writing table/easel). He loves them all!!!!
Jacen giving Mommy and Daddy presents from him!!!!
All in all, we had a good weekend just the three of us. It was definitely bittersweet because it was not the same without Nathan. Kyle and I had our happy and sad moments but we appreciate all the prayers that helped us get through the first Christmas without our precious Nathan.
