We exchanged gifts and celebrated Christmas with my parents while we were in town. My parents were so generous and put together really thoughtful gifts for my children. We so enjoyed spending time with them over this Christmas season. It was an absolute JOY!

My girls decorated 3 Christmas trees this season. The first was helping Granny with her tree. Step one was to fluff the tree, step 2 was decorating!

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!
