We had a great Christmas holiday! It started off with mass on Christmas Eve. Everly was pretty excited to see baby Jesus in the nativity scene at church. It can be a little hectic getting everyone to such a busy mass but we survived. Little Cam slept through the entire mass. I held Aspen for 90% of the mass and miss Mae was good despite probably being a bit tired. My sister packed little coloring packs for Ev and Ted so they were happily entertained. After mass we went back to my sister's for our traditional appetizers and presents from cousins/aunts/uncles/grandparents. My mom got the kids their own lounge chairs with their names embroidered and those were a big hit but my sister and brother in-law got the kids power wheels and that stole the show. The boys got a jeep to share and my girls got a kia soul. It's pretty adorable and Everly is now pretty good at driving it. We headed home Thursday night and put out cookies for Santa and carrots for the reindeer. Friday morning we opened presents from Santa at home. The girls were pretty happy with their presents. Justin got me some new running gear and some skincare items from Sephora so I was pretty happy, too! After presents we headed over to Justin's sister for breakfast. Everly brought her car over to take rides with our niece's son and Aspen finally warmed up to riding as well. Our breakfast burritos were super yummy. The girls napped at home before we headed back to my sister's for Christmas dinner. We always have a honeybaked ham and I cleared my plate. We played with presents and even got in a game of "Heads Up" with the adults. The girls won! The girls were both pretty tired by the end of the night and Aspen even fell asleep on Justin which she never does. Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!
