Christmas! (?)

I know it's halfway through January and I'm just now blogging about Christmas, but for memory's sake, I've gotta do it!

We had a wonderful Christmas Eve. Matt had the day off so we hung out and played just the four of us. We had a nice dinner then headed off to Christmas Eve service at Highlands. It was seriously the best Christmas Eve service I've ever been to. Highlands always does an amazing job but this year they definitely outdid themselves. Then we came home and the girls got to open one gift - their matching Christmas pj's :)

Ugh, the best shot I could get (it was waaaaay past bedtime!)


Christmas morning we got the girls up and brought them downstairs to see what Santa got them. Sienna's big gift was a princess car, just like her big sister (now they can EACH have one rather than fighting over the ONE we had!) Allie's big gift was her 'big girl bike' which she LOVES and rides so well (it's pretty big so I was a little worried it would take her a while to be able to really ride it) Then my parents, grandma, brother and sister-in-law and nephew came over and we did brunch and presents.

This girl is obsessed with this car!

S loved sitting on this box :)

Opening stockings

Pretty much the cutest little guy in the world


Then later that afternoon Matt's parents, brothers and grandparents came over and we, once again, did presents and dinner.

The best part of the whole day....we didn't leave the house one time!!! Except to go outside and play. I know that is totally selfish and we don't expect to do it every year but this is the second year in a row that we didn't leave and it was truly amazing and RELAXING (especially for a holiday that can oftentimes be a little chaotic)

We are so incredibly blessed, not only by the gifts we recieved but especially by the family that we have. Each one of our immediate family members lives within like a 20 mile radius of us. We are so close to them (not just by proximity) and love the so much and are so blessed that we got to spend just a meaningful holiday with them!
