The Holidays

What a wonderful Christmas season we had!!! Full of activity and excitement for the entire month of December!!! We started the celebration of our Savior's Birthday by making our second annual trip to Motley's Christmas tree farm to pick out our tree. We had a great time picking out the perfect tree. We made a trip to Branson the first weekend of December and had a blast with friends, The Sanchez and Billings families. We went to Silver Dollar City which is fabulous at Christmas with all the lights and it was even warm enough to ride all the roller coasters this year, a big hit with us adults. We had a great condo with an excellent view of the lake, best place we've stayed in Branson yet!! We returned home and continued the fun with play dates, Christmas parties, decorating, baking, crafting, ice skating and light looking. On December 18th, Kennedy had her dance recital and we all got a kick watching her dance to Christmas under the Ocean. We had Christmas with my dad's family that day with pizza and gifts after the big show :) We made a trip to Garvin Gardens to look at the lights and it was wonderful. Christmas Eve, GiGi and Uncle Chase came over and we did our traditional Jesus Birthday Cake and gingerbread house, church service and then down to Pine Bluff for our PJ party with The Coyle side of the family, returning home that night just in time for Santa to come. The kids were so excited, Kennedy woke us up at 5am wanting to see what Santa brought. Her favorite gift of the year was her Alice and Wonderland doll and Caleb loved his Batcave and Batmoblie. We spent Christmas Day at home for the entire day for the first time ever. Dave's Mom, Jim and NaNa we're at the beach in Florida, so we had Christmas with them the week after Christmas! Our holidays are filled with family and fun!! Dave and I joke that we are the couple on Four Christmases traveling and celebrating with four sets of parents, but we have a great time!!!! Hope everyone had a wonderful time celebrating Jesus, we sure did!!!
