Well, as usual I forgot to take pictures of our family Christmas, but we did have a wonderful time with the WHOLE Cable family all together!! We watched football, opened presents, played cards, played trains, did crafts, cried and laughed, and had great times together. The unfortunate part of Christmas this year was that it was my turn to take call and my first time working on Christmas. Jackson woke up at 4:30 Christmas morning and wanted so badly to go downstairs and see his train table cause he was so curious to see what this "Santa" thing was all about. So, I told him we had to wait until Cody woke up and we could go see. Cody promptly woke up at 6:00 and then of course my pager went off at 6:05 and I had to go to work. So I grabbed the boys, grabbed my camera and we ran downstairs to see what Santa brought. New train tracks for Jackson and a basketball hoop for Cody, and oranges at the bottom of their stockings. They were so happy and it was so cute to watch the magic light up their faces. I snapped a bunch of pictures then ran out the door, and I cried the whole way to work because I wanted to stay and watch them soak up all the fun. It was a busy day at work, but I was glad to help save lives. It was a constant reminder of the reason we are celebrating Christmas, and our Savior that was born on Christmas day had to make the sacrifice to save us!
