We had a great Christmas this year. It's a wonderful season and a great time to remember the life of our Savior and the sacrifice that he made for us.
*We spent Christmas Eve with the Pace family. Grandma served us a yummy dinner while Grandpa started a fire in the backyard. It was really cold that evening and the fire felt so nice. When it got dark, we went downstairs to play a candy bar game and then Grandpa Pace passed out teddy bears. Every grandchild received a teddy bear and a picture with Great-Grandma. We enjoyed spending Christmas Eve with the Pace family.
*We have some great Christmas Eve traditions. After visiting with the Pace family, we came home to open presents from Grandma and Grandpa Pace. The kids opened their Christmas Eve PJ's. After reading the Christmas story, the kids headed off to bed. The kids went to bed early this year - maybe the excitement was to much for them.
*Christmas morning came early and Emily woke everyone up to tell us that Santa came. After opening their presents, Grandma and Grandpa Wall came to visit the kids and see what Santa brought them for Christmas. It has become a wonderful tradition and my kids love it.
*In the afternoon, we headed off to spend the rest of Christmas with the Wall side of the family. Grandma Wall really loves Christmas and spoils her grandchildren. We enjoyed a great lunch and played some games. The cousins played together and had a total blast.
We had a great Christmas!
