Christmas is (was) here!

So I am behind here, but my excuse is the big first birthday party that we finally pulled off for Camille this weekend!

Before I get to that, let me recap some of our Christmas festivities. We seemed to have lots this year!

We had a big tub on Christmas Eve morning. That way we didn't need to worry about it that night when we would be busy

We went to church that evening, where Grady was Wise Man #1 in the pageant (he nailed it!). Then we came home and spread reindeer food on the lawn

After a nice dinner, the kids put on their matching pjs and piled onto the couch for Christmas stories
