Oh what fun! Our girls were so excited about everything and that was pretty awesome! I'll let the pictures tell how merry our morning was.

I was going to say that we had a really lovely Christmas Eve and then I recalled what actually happened that day and some of it was really stressful and completely out of our hands. But, we pulled through and made some beautiful memories. Every Christmas Eve, I can't help but think of the year 2016. Maeve was brand new and we ate frozen pizza for dinner because that newborn life is no cake walk! Every Christmas Eve that's a notch about that is a real win in my books! We went to a park and caroled with the neighbors. The girls opened up their Christmas Eve gifts. Buying matching jammies for all my girls was the best idea ever! We read our favorite Christmas tales and then we did our best to usher the kiddos into bed. Christmas is so magical!

My parents and my sister came for Christmas! It was awesome! My Mom made gingerbread houses for the girls to decorate. They had so much fun!

We had a really beautiful Christmas service this Sunday. These days, I'm often contemplating what the future holds for our family and I feel a lot of fear! But I always, always come back to my trust in God's plan for me, my family and my baby. It's because He was born that I can have this hope, faith, trust.
