We opened presents on Christmas Eve morning, since Ryan and Michelle's family was going to be coming to stay with us that night. We got two full days of Christmas!
We went over to G&G Arnold's after our morning was finished, so they could give the kids their gifts, and we saw Blake and Lindsay for a bit that morning, too.
I had time to do a little bit of food prep before it was time to go to the Christmas Eve service. The service was really nice! We did a combined event with Gresham Bible, and it was great to see so many friends there, too. I loved the candlelight service and the way we were able to take some time to reflect on the true meaning of Christmas. Afterwards, we went back over for dinner and birthday cake for Jesus with the Arnolds.
Ryan and Michelle got in late that night, and we headed over to G&G Moffat's for Christmas Day. Lots of great family time. The kids had a great time playing games all day long. It was a happy, full, and loud house!
Ryan and Michelle's family took off the next morning to spend the day with her side of the family, and Greg and I took down the tree and decorations, trying to get our house back in order.
The next day we went to see Sing 2 in the theater together and had dinner with everyone over at Eric and Leah's.
In the days following Christmas, it snowed off and on, which was fun. It was just enough to be pretty but not so much that it kept us from doing things.
