This Christmas was definitely not a disappointment to our family!
We have been blessed with such great friends, an amazing family, and some very special memories!
We could post a million pictures of our Christmas but for now we thought we would just post a few from our Christmas morning.
The first is from Bryleigh's perspective and the second from Brenden!
(Don't worry though, we'll post some of the other pictures from Christmas soon.)

We hope your Christmas was just as enjoyable and blessed!

Merry Christmas from the Farrs!

"Suddenly, an angel of the Lord appeared among them, and the radiance of the Lord’s glory surrounded them. They were terrified, but the angel reassured them. “Don’t be afraid!” he said. “I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people. The Savior—yes, the Messiah, the Lord—has been born today in Bethlehem, the city of David! " Luke 2:9-11

Bulls Experience

The other weekend Brenden had a really "awesome" experience with Papa and Daddy.
The 3 of them headed to the DBAP to have a very unique and fun day with the Bulls.
They got to got out on the field and play catch.
They hung out with the Santa Wool E. Bull.
They also received autographs (and pictures) from Elliot Johnson and Chris Richards.

Anyone that knows Brenden knows that this boy LOVES baseball.
On top of that he is awfully fond of The Bulls.
So for him, this day was like a dream come true!

What a blessing to live in such an amazing city!!!!

Bahama Parade

Today, our family bundled up, headed out, and enjoyed the Bahama Christmas Parade.
This is one of our most favorite Christmas traditions each year!
We always enjoy the show, love the fellowship, and cherish the memories!

This year was not a disappointment at all!!!

(Above: Brenden was ALL smiles during the parade.)

(Above: Bryleigh was not quite sure if she liked all of the noise and chaos.)

(Above: Finally, she decided to join Daddy to watch the parade closer.)

(Above: She ended up LOVING the parade from the view on Daddy's shoulders.)

(Above: However, this was our favorite thing about the parade...Hopie's debut!)

We HIGHLY recommend you join us next year!!! :)

Dear LA,

God has provided us with many great things!
He has given us a wonderful family.
He is consistently showing us our amazing friends.
He is always faithful in providing far more than we deserve.
We are so thankful for all of this!


However, we have to (secretly) admit...
we are truly thankful for the flakes that fall on us every now and then.
Not only are they a lot of fun...
They are also a great reminder of how blessed we are to have you as our friend!
(I mean face it, it's not even winter officially and we've already had 2 "snow days"...God definitely loves you and so do we!)

Enjoy your flakes, know that we miss you, and don't worry we're enjoying our snow too! ;)

Love ya!

* P.S. Hard to tell but it really is snowing in these pics. I forgot to take more when the ground was covered. Sorry!

"All Aboard!"

Last weekend our family got up entirely too early and headed to the local Amtrak station to meet some friends for the Santa Train. We decided to wait and tell the kids about it that morning so they were VERY eager to arrive and get on board. Bobby and I couldn't wait to see their faces because not only was this our first train trip, we knew that they would absolutely love this time with their friends and of course Santa. We were not disappointed at all! Below are our favorite pictures from our adventure! Enjoy!

(Above: Brenden was SO excited about the train!)

(Above: Bryleigh was a little unsure at first but Santa insisted on a hug.)

(Above: Look who warmed up to Santa...she LOVED him!)

(Above: Brenden really enjoyed hanging out with his buddies on the train. They were "writing" on the windows.)

(Above: Bryleigh enjoyed hanging out with Daddy best...Daddy's girl!)
