Christmas...finally!

Yeah, I know, I'm a little behind.

We decided to spend Christmas eve and Christmas morning at home this year before heading to my parents for the week. On Christmas eve morning, Jacob decided it would be a good idea to jump off his window seat, but instead of jumping out, he fell to the side and hit his face on the edge of the bench.  He got a pretty good size knot and a huge bruise on the side of his face.  He stopped crying after just a few minutes, but we spent most of the day freaking out about it.  The bruise is finally starting to go away, but it's very visible in all of his Christmas pictures!

We went to Christmas eve service at church.  I wish I had known to have my camera ready at church, because Jacob ran up on stage at the end of the service to help with the closing prayer and song.  That kid.

Christmas morning was fun, getting to see Jacob find all his presents from Santa under his tree!









We left just as the storm was starting and completely missed the 12" of snow that fell at our house Christmas night.  I can't say that I'm too upset about that!

In Mississippi, we visited grandparents, great-grandparents, and great-great-grandparents.  We celebrated with everyone and enjoyed our week there.  Jacob and Carson had fun getting to play with their cousins and all the new toys Santa left at Kay-Kay and Papa's house too.




A and I also enjoyed some time to ourselves, going to dinner and 2 movies in one week!  That was a welcome surprise for us and we really appreciated my parents giving us that time to enjoy.

We had a wonderful Christmas and I hope you did too!
