Christmas!

Christmas was a lot of fun this year! We drove the "Texas Triangle" to go visit the family! (McKinney, to San Antonio, to Houston and back home!)

First we went to see Nana and Pappy in San Antonio for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day! This year was really special because Eloise understands Santa Clause! Christmas Eve was full. We decorated cookies for Santa, opened our traditional Christmas Eve Pajamas, went out for a delicious dinner and then went to bed early to prepare for Santa's visit. During bedtime prayers Eloise BEGGED for us to wake her up when Santa came (quite cute!) Of course, Christmas morning was magical watching the kids get so excited over their gifts. Lucie was able to participate a little more this year. :) The girls big surprise was a pink retro kitchen! There were so many cute moments and adorable gifts. Here are a few photos from the day.

After opening gifts we sat down and enjoyed a Christmas feast!

The night of Christmas we drove from San Antonio to Houston to see Coco, Papa, and all of the cousins! The morning after Christmas was Christmas part 2! The kiddos opened gifts first, and then we ate lunch. During nap time the parents/adults exchanged gifts. It was another great day!

Connally and Cate got this jump house from Santa and it was a HUGE hit!
It's time to say goodbye! We loved spending Christmas with everyone!
Thanks for a magical holiday!
