And now that I finally do post, it's a late post, to boot!
But it's better late than never, right?
Anyway, we had a wonderful time celebrating Christ's birth.
I can't believe Christmas was 2 whole months ago! At that point, we were mostly unpacked and were able to decorate our house. We were so happy about that. The tree got moved around a few times until we figured out the perfect spot for it in our living room. Sadly, it wasn't until after Christmas that it was placed there.
We spent our Christmas Eve in our favorite, usual way; with our grandparents at their home.
These are a few pictures I took near their house on our way over, from inside our moving car.
Haha =)
Daddy telling a story that I wish I could remember...
His collection grew throughout the night.
Grandma looking pretty and festive.
Grandpa with the vest we got for him.
I always love their tree back there. It has the prettiest decorations!
Christmas morning was spent at home, as always.
She is so cute.
I love Abigail's expression.
Allison had wrapped his gift in about 12 layers of paper. I think he was on layer number 6.
Allison quilted this for him. She is so talented!
The Andrews.
Knuckles. haha!
Anginda (as Abigail called her when she was 2).
Allison made Daddy a jar of chocolate chip cookies. He's a PASTRY CHEF, and his absolute favorite dessert is chocolate chip cookies. His number 2 is plain old chocolate cake.
Allen trying to mooch.
Look at Anna.I love my mother.
Avery and Mommy.
We got Allison a blender. She was estatic. She couldn't even talk. Haha most girls would be offended at such a gift!She's been making smoothies and slushies almost every day.
