We spent Christmas Eve at Mike's parents house.
(this pic is from earlier in the month.)
Peter and Lily's big gift from them was an indoor trampoline. It couldn't be disguised so they enjoyed some pre-meal & pre-gift jumping!
Then we had a yummy brunch of egg casserole, BACON, and fruit... I love this pic below b/c we are just leisurely hanging around the table & relaxing, just like the atmosphere at their house
...and we are talking to Becky on the phone :)
Then gift time...
they got this m&d cutting produce, along with aprons & chefs hats.
being silly- I think Peter has the prettiest hair
Lily also got this CUTE pink hat (plus other great things that I didn't get pics of!)
with Pop and Gram
Pop and Gram joined us for the 4 o'clock Christmas Eve service.
Then we all came back here for some black bean soup (pre-cooked).
This was the first year ever that I remembered to think about dinner... so it was nice to come home to warm soup in the crock pot. Peter helped me decorate a Birthday Cake for Jesus.
Then we did aunt/uncle/cousin gifts here...
Lily got the prettiest green damask print monogrammed dress & red cardigan from Aunt Carrie...
Lily's aunts have great taste & know how to spoil her!
Peter got explorer gear from Liam... so fun!
Jump, jump, jump into Pop's lap!
More sweet pics of Lily concentrating on reading her Sesame Street books (in her pretty Cmas outfit from Gram)...
Lovin on Pop...
It was a perfect day. We stayed here instead of rushing to L'ville and that was a great choice!
