We have been enjoying our Christmas season. It has been simple, sweet, and fun so far. Elf on the Shelf joined our family this year. The girls named her, "Chocolate." She has been hiding in fun places every morning.
We had a fun visit with Nan and Pa G, dinner and games!
Doug had a work party, where we talked to Santa, saw a big bear and reindeer, and made fun crafts. Katelyn was so excited about everything. She has NO reservations, is NOT shy, and it up to try anything. She went right up to Santa and just chilled with him for awhile, didn't ask for anything, and was content with the candy cane he gave her. Allie sat with him but was quiet and reserved in her usual way. She asked for a pretend puppy.
We have loved looking at Christmas lights, listening to Christmas music, watching Christmas movies, delivering freezer jam to friends for gifts, receiving yummy gifts from friends, getting Christmas cards in the mail, having our countdown doors with candy inside, and the pure joy and magic of the season.
Tonight we attended a live Nativity at a local church in the area. They acted out the Christmas story and sang songs. It was freezing but a wonderful experience that we will all remember. We have more planned in the coming week. We hope your holiday season has been full of joy too!
