Christmas

We made a ton of Christmas cookies this year and this is the only picture I took! But it's a good one : ) The kiddos enjoyed decorating and then we finished with a big cookie for dada!
We had a really fun Christmas this year. Since I'm due 1 week after Christmas and am limited on travel Adam's parents and GiGi Donna came and stayed at our place for Christmas. It was a lot of fun to have them and to host at our own home! Here we are headed to Christmas Eve service... we fit almost everyone in the Suburban but it was a little tight in the far back seat so Beepa opted for the trunk!
Here's a decent picture from the candlelight service
We went to First Presbyterian Church and it was a really pretty service. Here are the kiddos up front for the kids section... it's hard to tell but Josh is in a white shirt and red vest and Amelia is next to him
After the service we headed to the Broadmoor to look at their light display

They had a huge gingerbread house made from real candies and whatnots!
The 2 littles checking it out
And here's the stats of what it took to make this real lifesize house
Christmas morning!

 We ended the day with some company from the Smiths and their kiddos... here they are exchanging some gifts!
 and the Taveras stopped by! Thanks for the apple pie Joey!
Meema, Beepa and Amelia sleeping together at the end of the day!
 Meema Noreen came a couple of days after Christmas to stay put until Baby #4 arrives... here's one of his gifts from Meema!

We also did FaceTime with Beepa Vaughn and Sudy when we opened their gifts but we didn't take any pictures! Thanks for all the gifts everyone!
