It’s hard to believe another Christmas has come and gone already. It wasn’t the white Christmas we had hoped for moving to Canada and all but Mother Nature has redeemed herself over the last few days. Our weekend was filled with heartfelt traditions, good company, yummy food, and lots of laughs.

My personal favorite tradition is opening ornaments on Christmas Eve.

My Dad reading Twas the Night Before Christmas, a 32 year tradition.

The kiddos were a little overwhelmed with all their new toys so we spent the day slowly opening things up. I think the favorites are Caity’s L&L Car and Parker’s building blocks.

Parker couldn’t wait to take his new digger to the park and play in the sand.

We decided to get a sitter and all go our for an adult dinner. It was nice to sit down and enjoy a meal while being able to pay attention to the conversation!
