Christmas Day 2018

Another magical Christmas day has come and gone and I am so grateful to have a place to record all of our special photos and memories. I will be back with another post to share more of our trip to Arizona (always the best time everrr!) but today I wanted to simply share our Christmas Eve night and Christmas Day.

We got to go to a special Christmas Eve service at my parents church and it was wonderful! Beautiful music, no candles (a check in the positive column for a parent with littles!), and a wonderful time of worship.

After service, we went to dinner at Chompies! We love to go here after church because it’s really close by. It’s kind of a fun post-church tradition of ours!

Then we came home and baked and decorated cookies for Santa!

And ate copious amounts of frosting 😉

We snuggled on the couch together and watched Beauty & The Beast, took a night swim, and then set things up for Santa’s arrival!

I told Abigail that when I was a kid, we always left a can of Mountain Dew out for Santa (he needs the caffeine!) so that’s what she wanted to leave for him too. Along with some carrots for the reindeer of course!
