I'm gonna try to upload several pictures from Christmas Eve. They will just be the ones of my kids and I. I don't want to include any of my other family without their permission.
Haylee and I went to church for their Christmas Eve service. It was awesome! They had a play and then they ha a Christmas message that I think God wanted to me hear. It was amazing; and really helped to hear that for the strength I needed and still need to get through these Holidays.
Then we headed back to our house where Bennett was taking a nap his Dad stayed with him. I figured this way Bennett wouldn't be overly tired for the night.
We then packed up and went to my parents house for dinner and Santa. It was so fun. I laughed so much! I have missed that. Being with my family. They have missed me as well. It was kinda sad that I noticed that my parents have several pictures of all the other grand kids and not mine. This is due to the fact that we weren't around them much. I just pray that God will help them to forgive me for this and for me to not feel the guilt that I feel about this!
Anyways! We had a yummy dinner with Chili and Black Bean soup; rolls, cheese the works! YUM! The only thing was my Mom didn't have time to make the cheese bread. I'll have to wait till next year:(
Then the kids went to look at Christmas lights and then Santa came. HOW FUN!! Just like when I was a kid! It was so fun watching them tear through the presents! Bennett even managed to pretty much get one of his toys open and when I say that; I mean out of the box. He was determined to get the turtle out of that box( hehe)!
The kids all had a great time and so did the whole family. I found out that Katie my sister's little girl is HILARIOUS! I was getting Bennett ready for his bath and Katie came over and gave him a raspberry on his belly! I didn't expect it and I laughed to hard. Bennett loved it too! Cousin LOVE their is nothing like it:)
