Christmas Eve and Day!

Our Christmas was wonderful this year! We were blessed to have Mema and Papa here and we invited our good friends, The Williams over to share in the Christmas Eve Festivities. Unfortunately we didnt take too many pictures once the fun all began, but it was so great to share that time with them.
Having the kids eat before the adults because they couldn't wait any longer. Our meal consisted of (turkey, stuffing, my friend Tali's mashed potatoes, my friend Ellie's sweet potato casserole, broccoli, my mother-in-laws butter rolls, raspberry jello and pretzel casserole). It was delicious and our friends that joined us are vegan so they brought some of their food to share with us.
Our tiny table that managed to fit 6 adults.
Mike and Lincoln celebrating
We were so blessed this year as well with several thoughtful gifts, especially Mike's gifts to me, so thoughtful and wonderful!
Christmas morning with their socks and Santa present (a repunzel figurine for V and a choo-choo for L)
We basically played with every toy we opened so it made for a very long gift opening but it was so much fun! Vienna got plenty of princess related stuff and Lincoln got plenty of cars, trains and airplane related stuff.
We also took an adventure to the sledding hill and the kids LOVED it!
The kids of course have the best ride in the house, I wish it was me but alas I am way too heavy being 39 weeks pregnant and all.
The day ended with snuggling on the couch watching our new movie, The Incredibles (which Mike had never seen because it came out on his mission). It was the perfect day!
