Christmas festivities:
Christmas Eve Morning we enjoyed watching the kids open their present from us. We let them open our gift early this year because both sets of grandparents bought them items to go with their kitchen, so we thought it would be nice for them to know exactly what was going on.




Christmas Eve Night: We kept with tradition and did my families christmas with candy making (in the afternoon), dinner, fam pics, and presents. I was excited to host this year!

Christmas Morning: We enjoyed a visit from uncle Adam and Pappy. They played with the kids while mommy baked cupcakes and goodies for Ella's birthday party. We enjoyed the moring around the house. That evening we headed off to the Swartzentruber Christmas (husbands/moms side). There we enjoyed food, talent show, and grandma great.
