Christmas fun

We had a really fun Christmas this year. I love everything about the day, it is such a fun holiday!!

This year we attended Christmas Eve service at our new church. We hadn't been to a Christmas Eve service in a few years because the one at our old church started later and went a lot longer and it was too late with bedtime and everything. The boys did well and enjoyed holding the candles for the last song. And of course, they love any excuse to wear their ties!
We have had a tradition (only the last 2 years, but I hope it sticks) of staying home Christmas morning as a family and opening presents and eating breakfast before heading over to a grandparent's house. I like having this time to ourselves and it just makes it so much calmer when we don't have to get up and rush out the door right away.
And as you can see in the background of some of these pictures, we did have a white Christmas!! It wasn't actually snowing, but there was plenty of snow on the ground and it was very cold. White Christmases are the best!!!!
