Christmas: Part 2

Sunday morning was so nice because it was just us and we got to enjoy the kids all to ourselves. It was so fun seeing the look on there faces as they came down and saw the presents there. Ezra really gets it this year. He was up and in our room by 7 and said, "can we go see if Santa came?" We made him wait for like 30 minutes before we woke up the girls and headed downstairs. It was so fun to see them! I want to soak up every moment of this!

The rest of the morning we just hung out and relaxed!

That afternoon we headed to Fredericksburg to be with Brent's family.  We had such a great time with them! This year, we decided not to do presents and just focus on Jesus and our family. Every year we have the Eilers cousins dress up for a nativity scene. This year Opa wanted to act out the Nativity. So, all of the cousins were assigned a part and we had a script. I didn't know how it was going to work at first, but it was super cute and all the kids did great. I have some video clips on my phone that hopefully I will be able to put together.  We also got some cute photos.

We also did something new this year. We all brought a gingerbread house and made a little gingerbread village with the kids. It was our first time to ever do a gingerbread house. It was so much fun and all the kids LOVED it! I hope we continue these two new traditions with our family.

Thank you, Eilers! Love you!!
