Christmas Eve




We went to church on Christmas Eve. They had a wonderful candlelit service, but the girls were a little rowdy so we didn't light our candle. When we got home Elise wanted to light the candle & she sang Happy Birthday to baby Jesus. It was so cute! Then we continued our tradition of matching PJs & watched Merry Christmas Charlie Brown. We left some cookies & milk for Santa and off to bed! Elise was so excited & it made me feel like a kid again!

Holiday Dinner



We had a holiday dinner party with the Hoyles & the Lawsons...here are some pics of the kids exchanging presents. It is so nice to have such great friends & to watch our children grow up together.

Visiting Aunt Judy



We started our busy holiday festivities with a trip to Cincy to see my Aunt Judy. I was worried that the girls would be like bulls in a China shop, but they were pretty well-behaved. They loved the dogs -Talitha (pictured above) & Jakob who is a wonderful service dog (he even helps with laundry). It was so nice to see Aunt Judy & Uncle Ron!
