Christmas is here!

Well, was here. I'm a bit late on posting, but better than never I guess! :)

We really had a nice, relaxing Christmas. We went over to Adam's brother's house for brunch on Christmas Eve with his mom and the girls had great fun with their cousin Vanessa! Especially after opening all the gifts - Adam got a grill for Christmas/Birthday and all three girls LOVED being on top of the box! Here's a picture I stole from Jenn's website. :)

That evening, the girls dressed up in their fancy Christmas dresses for our Christmas Eve church service. I remember getting a fancy dress to wear for that one special night and know that our girls will too - especially after this year, when they just LOVED their dresses!!! (It truly is next to impossible to get a good picture of the girls together now!!)

Alaina was very excited to get up on Christmas morning - which made Cami excited, though she didn't know why. :) Here are a few pictures of the girls opening gifts.

After our crazed morning, we quickly got dressed (the girls wanted to wear their fancy dresses again - yes, both wanted to wear them!). My parents and brother drove down for the day and we had a nice feast of ribs and other yummy foods and desserts! And of course, more unwrapping of gifts!

It really was a nice day. A great day to remember what we were celebrating - the birth of our savior, Jesus. Alaina got to put up the baby Jesus on the last day of our Advent calendar and it was a nice reminder of what this day is truly all about. What a thing to celebrate!!!
