Christmas Program

Landon and Owen invited us to come to their church Christmas program. We've enjoyed this for several years - watching Landon at 2 and 3 years old dressed as an angel singing and at 4 singing several songs with his group.

We were anxious to see IF Owen would participate as an angel this year with the 2 & 3s. NOPE!
Owen sitting with Grandma Kahler while his angel group sang on the stage.

After Landon was on stage Owen wondered when it was his turn. At the end of the program all of the children went back up so he had a chance. They sang and acted out the song "The Best Thing" and Owen went up on stage with Landon.


We had cake and punch to celebrate Jesus' birthday.


Photo Time! The Kahler family

Love these precious little boys!
