Welcome back! Another Christmas come and gone…but it sure was a good one. We got to see tons of family and make some memories in our new house. I really don’t think anything could have gone better! Most of the decorations are already down and my empty house is looking even more empty without all the Santas sitting around. A little sad, but we’ve got lots to look forward to in the weeks ahead! But first we’ve got to recap Christmas!
The buildup to the big day was fun all on its own. Christmas Eve we spent getting ready for Santa and hanging out with family. We went to the 12:00 “family friendly” nativity service up at church. The boys sure did look sweet all dressed up for church!
I love going to that service because the kids can come with us and they sing all the classic Christmas songs you know while telling the story of the nativity. Both boys acted great – Maxwell was a star and Spencer got an A thanks largely to about 6 graham crackers! 🙂
I spent the afternoon cooking away for Christmas and was glad to have my helper to taste test everything…well, the desserts anyway!
That night, my family came over for some Feliz Navidad tacos and then we set out cookies, milk and reindeer food…
and then we all settled in for a long winter’s nap….
Looks like a perfect Christmas Eve!
Cue the reindeer, it’s show time Santa!
We surely did have lots of fun Christmas day in your new house It is beautiful! Christmas dinner was delicious. Steph, you outdid yourself! Thanks for all our nice goodies. Enjoyed being with Jan and Steve too.
