Our Christmas started last weekend when we went to my Aunt and Uncle's home in College Station. We have a big Christmas party/reunion every year and I love it! It was a little crazy for Matt and I since we had to tote around SO much stuff for Caleb and feed him every hour (not really, but it felt like that) but we still had fun seeing everyone.

| The whole group! |
 |
| This was right after she kissed him on the head, so precious |
 |
| My dad played in the yard with the kids a lot! |
 |
| This was right after she landed from her big jump! |
 |
| This was the big laugh of the day, my dad broke the chair I think? |
 |
| The kiddos! |
 |
| My PawPaw with Kaley |
 |
| He's a proud PawPaw! |
 |
| Absolutely LOVE this picture! |
We headed back home on Sunday to get everything ready for Christmas day. My parents came up to Dallas this year so the kids could have Christmas morning in their homes. I'm so glad it turned out the way it did, and we all had a white Christmas too! It was perfect :)
We went to my sister's church for their Christmas Eve service. It was so nice! They had a beautiful candle light service and had glow sticks for the kids. Caleb loved that! After the service we all went over to my sister's home and had snacks and let the kids play in the playroom.
 |
| Caleb did so good during the service! He pretty much did this the whole time :) |

Right before going to bed.
I'm sure he's saying "Santa I've been a very good boy! Please visit my home!" |
 |
| And sure enough, right after he went to bed, Santa came!! |
I didn't take a ton of pictures Christmas morning, mainly because I didn't want to miss being a part of it. There was a pretty good thunderstorm going on the whole time we opened presents. It was weird! Can't think of a time we ever had a thunderstorm on Christmas morning.
 |
| He went straight to his new activity table! |
These last few pictures are when we were over at my sister's house. We had a very yummy lunch and opened more gifts! My dad's parents came over too, it was so much fun. It started snowing while Caleb was having lunch, then he took a 2 hour nap and by the time he woke up the roads were getting bad so we had to head out. We never got pictures of him in the snow, but i'm ok with it. He has a runny nose right now and we didn't want to push it just for a picture. I just think it's cool his first Christmas was a white one!
 |
| My sister and her family got Caleb his first train set! |
 |
| He LOVES it! |
 |
| My niece out in the snow! |
 |
| My sister and Kaley |
 |
| My dad and Kaley trying to catch some snow. Kaley wasn't a big fan haha |
 |
| Our drive home was BEAUTIFUL! |
 |
| Our only family picture in the snow. Not great, but at least we have this one! |
We had a Christmas that will be in our memory for years to come. Lord, thank You for Your Son and for ours!!
Merry Christmas everyone!!
