Christmas in Sacramento

As usual, we had an exciting but hectic Christmas celebration in Sacramento with both Marty and Sarah's family. Christmas Eve was spent with Marty's family for a nice dinner and presents.





On Christmas Day, Sarah and Tom hosted an incredible breakfast spread at the Jumper house for guests. We opened the rest of our presents late in the morning.



Tom even pretended to be an authentic "bad Santa".



We spent the evening dining with Sarah's extended family. As usual, all of our Christmas wishes came true.

Jackson's First Birthday Parties

Yes, Jackson's first birthday was so special that we had to have more than one party for him. The first party was with all of our friends at Wharton and Jackson's buddies from the Wharton Kids Club. We had cake and ice cream for the kids and Marty even learned how to make balloon animals for the kids (well, at least he could make a dog and a flower).





After we got to Sacramento for the holidays, we had another birthday party for Jackson so that he could celebrate with his family. He had another cake and was showered with attention and way too many gifts.



His cousins were more than happy to help take care of him.
