The one thing I requested was a GOOD family picture - and I got it :)
And then one of my favorite Christmas pictures came up in my TimeHop :)
Christmas Eve morning we opened gifts from my sister and her husband and my BFF - the plan was to take the edge off the excitement but it may have excited them even more!!!
We ran a quick snowy errand with the littlest one and he had a good car nap :)
After Christmas Eve at our church, where Tater was the acolyte, we started a new tradition of Christmas Eve Tacos - and it was a hit!!!
Cookies, milk, and carrots!
Then we said goodbye to Pogo!
Pogo left us a sweet note, reminding us that Christmas was not just about the magic and Santa.
And Santa did come and left a few surprises!
I couldn't resist sneaking in for sweet sleeping pictures :)
"And the stockings were all hung..."
Christmas Day we woke up to a very white Christmas!
And the kids slept in a bit so we enjoyed the Christmas lights, a fire and some yummy breakfast!
I got the best morning snuggles with this little guy :)
Waiting at the top of the steps to see if Santa came!
New house, new steps, same tradition!
And here's a bit of the loot!
We played. We ate. We went to the movies.
It was relaxing day with our sweet little family...and we loved every minute of it!
I LOVE the name of your blog... how true!!! Great Christmas pictures; looks like it was great one.
ReplyDeleteWe worried that it would be hard since we were without family for the first time but it was by far our best! We loved how relaxed and calm it was - and how we did things on our own timetable :) The kids even had time to share their new toys with their neighborhood friends which was so sweet to see!
