Christmas
was a whirlwind! We spent a lot of time
with family, some time with friends, and most of our time with our little
family of 5. It was a holiday break that was both busy and fun. Both sides of our family are in town, so we
are on the go a lot Christmas Eve, Christmas, and the day (or two) after. This
year we switched some things up, so we were able to be at home more which was
so nice!
We
spend Christmas Eve with Daniel’s family.
Early evening is spent with my father in-law’s family and then we head
to Daniel’s parents’ house to have Christmas with his immediate family.
My
sister, brother in-law, and nephews came into town that evening, so we were
able to see them as soon as we got home that night. We put all 5 kids to bed and waited for Santa
to do his magic J The five of them must have been realllyyyy
good this year! My parents came over
super early Christmas morning to see all the grand kids and so we could have our annual breakfast. My nephews were up
bright and early – I had to go wake my girls up! It still took Hayden a little while to warm up,
but they all loved what Santa got them for Christmas.
The morning quickly flew by before it was time to leave for our next family gathering! Christmas Day afternoon is spent at Daniel’s parents’ house with my mother in-laws side of the family. We even managed to get a group photo! On the way home Hayden had a bloody nose, which scared the crap outta Daniel and I. So random and didn't last too long, so we think it was from a dry nose or she hit it on something before we left. Needless to say, that evening was spent at home relaxing; the girls played with some of their new toys, and I did some laundry to make sure the stains didn't stick to Hayden’s clothes.

The
day after Christmas was low key for the most part. All 5 cousins played all day while my mom,
sister, and I got some things ready for my dad’s side of the family to come
over. We ate too much food, which was a
pretty consistent theme! That evening my
mom offered to watch all of the kids, so my sister, brother in-law, Daniel, and
I could go out for a little bit of adult time with our cousins Matt & Nikki. We brought out all the sleeping
bags so the older 4 could watch a movie before we left. We had drinks and dessert at Shyndigz – it was
so yummy and the company was great. We laughed a lot.
such a beautiful family!!! so glad you had an amazing holiday season!
