Christmas day

I was so surprised Christmas day when the kids didn't get up until 8:30am.

I then found out that Josh changed Jordan's clock by two hours haha.

They needed the sleep anyways!

While Josh and I lay in bed for a few minutes to wake up the kids

went down to look through their stockings. Then it was time for

presents! I set my camera up on the tripod and took pics with my

remote for half of present opening and then took it off half way through.

I actually made it in a few pics!

 

 

After presents I made coffee and started making our traditional coyotes.

My mom makes the dough for us each year and delivers it! 

We are spoiled :)

 

 

After breakfast Jordan was super excited to go try out his new goal post!

 

 

We relaxed for a bit around the house before heading to my parents

house for more presents and food!

 

 

 

 

We headed home to relax for a bit before bed.

The holidays can be exhausting.



Christmas Eve

Christmas eve morning was pretty mellow.

Josh went into work and to do some last minute shopping.

Jordan and I hung out at the house.

Michelle went the day before to spend the night at Josh's parents

house to help prep for Christmas eve.

 

We did wake up to see Sunshine under the tree with a letter

saying that we had permission for one day to hold, touch and

say goodbye to Sunshine before he returned to the north pole for the year.

Jordan was hesitant to touch him at first but once he did Sunshine went every

where with us for the day even church!

 

 

Jana messaged us in the morning to see if we wanted to go for cookies

at the Lynden Dutch Bakery. We were up for an outing to help pass the morning!

 

 

 

We went to the Christmas Eve service at church which I loved.

It was fun to pause and remember what we are really celebrating

and I love singing Christmas songs! Jordan sat through the service

and did awesome! He even won the kid category in the Ugly Sweater

contest they had a couple weeks ago! He got a gift card to DQ.

He was super excited!

 

 

 

 Christmas Eve this year was spent at Josh's parents house.

They put together a fun little party with an ugly sweater contest,

games and a white elephant gift exchange.

 

Josh got third in the ugly sweater contest.

Jordan and Josh's team got first in the reindeer games.

 

The kids got spoiled with gifts, to much food was eaten and fun

was had by all! All these pics were taken on my iPhone because
I forgot my camera. At least it is captured.

the Project Life App. I wanted to get the link up going though
