Christmas







Christmas is my favorite holiday. To me, I don't think of it as a holiday, but more as a big birthday party for Jesus Christ. He is the greatest gift anyone could receive and we all exchange gifts in honor of Him. Speaking of gifts, the two girls received more than they should have, thanks to wonderful grandparents, great grandparents and one super Aunt Annie! Reese got her cash regsiter she had been wanting and an easel and vaccum from Santa and among other things such as a Doll House, a Dora tent, an American Girl Doll, Easy Bake Oven, lots of new movies and great books to just name a few. The little one got lots of rattles, clothes and toys for later. Christmas Eve we spent with Matt's family at his mom's house and then we went to church that night as well. This was the first Christmas since we have been married that we have stayed at our house and it was really nice to wake up and be able to open our gifts. Even better we got to stay home all day! On Christmas day we had both of our families over for lunch and we exchanged gifts with them as well. These are some of my favorite pictures. Check out the matching sweaters that Reese and Aggie had and all the cousin reindeer! Ramsey is also really starting to smile now and I happen to catch her smiling on Christmas morning. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!
