I had a total blast this Christmas season! I decorated for it the Saturday after Thanksgiving and didn't listen or watch anything that wasn't Christmas related from that point on. Luckily my kids are young enough to not care about that so much ;)
This year we didn't travel nearly at all for the holidays which was fabulous. Last year we were running around everywhere with a 16 and 2 month old, in the cold, and the snow. Wasn't a total picnic, so not traveling was a welcome change.
On the 18th we hosted our "casual Christmas" with the Fife's and Romney's, played games, exchanged gifts, and ate wayyyy too much food. Chris made a BOMB video to commemorate the event. For the actual holiday we went to Kyle's parents for Christmas and all of his siblings were there for the first time in a LONG time. Waking up to a white Christmas a magical!
We had a great time playing games, visiting and just enjoying the spirit of Christmas. Participating in the #LIGHTtheWORLD challenge was a welcome addition for me this month and I truly feel like it gave me a moment each day to pause and reflect on the miracle of Christ's birth.
