Out to eat for Jake's birthday...
She slept through most of dinner until the chef started banging around!
A few other random pics...
Going to get their hand prints made!
She wanted to hold her sister naked :) goofy girl
We started out our Christmas festivities with breakfast at Cracker Barrel with just us and the girls (we have been a little stir crazy trapped inside)...
real life haha
Christmas eve night we went to the candle light service and it was BEAUTIFUL...and I loved having both our girls there with us! Allie Kate was pretty excited too to get to go to big church :)
After church we went to Nan and Pop's house to eat and Allie Kate got her presents from them and thought it was so much fun opening presents (she also opened Ava's presents :)
sleeping while Santa visited
Santa must love matching presents for my girls :)...
big sister little sister necklaces!
matching backpacks
Matching pillows
Christmas morning me and Heath woke up early so we could get showers and be ready when Allie Kate woke up (which was around 7:30am). She thought me and Heath were crazy because we were both in her face with cameras and it freaked her out she didn't want to come out of our bedroom haha!
She was excited to see what Santa left for her and open her presents from us!
this is what all my presents looked like under the tree :) I love the little scribbled name :)
After we opened presents at our house we went down to Nana's house for breakfast and gifts with them...Allie helped cook :)
plating in the tent waiting on breakfast :)
When we left there we went straight to Gran and Papa's house to open gifts with them...my girls and me and Heath racked up with gifts from everywhere this year!
We left from Gran and Papa's and came home for a quick nap before heading back down to Nana's for dinner and gifts with the step side of the family!
Our first Christmas as a family of four :)
Real life again :)
BUSY BUSY day but it was fun :) I think next year we may try to calm down a little so Allie Kate can enjoy her toys a little more (and by then we will have another sweet girl running around)! I love Christmas time and I am so thankful for the real reason of Christmas JESUS!! Me and Allie sang happy birthday to Jesus and I really want her to know what Christmas is about... not some fat guy who brings lots of gifts (sorry Santa) but JESUS! It's so easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle but hopefully my girls will grow up knowing it's not all about all that!
Oh and by the way guess what sweet angel is one month old...
And look who got put in the doll stroller this morning haha! Ava Grace you are me and sissy little baby doll :)
