Merry Christmas!

Our Christmas celebrations today topped off what has been a really exciting holiday season for Nora and our family.  She has been delighted by all the aspects of the holiday this year, so in addition to sharing a few pictures of our Christmas day, I wanted to post some of my other favorite scenes of the season.

Christmas Day

I didn't manage to get any pictures of the family festivities, but we spent Christmas Eve with Billy's Dad's side of the family.  After the three of us got up and opened presents on Christmas morning, Patti, Chuck, and Brian came over for Christmas breakfast.  Later in the morning Tres and Vickie joined us to celebrate, and then after Nora's nap we went up to Billy's aunt's house to spend the afternoon and evening with his mom's whole side of the family.  We are thankful that we got to see all of our Maryland relatives in a 24 hour span!

We're sorry to be unable to head west to see my family this holiday season, but we anxiously await my mom's trip to Maryland and we are thankful that FaceTime makes it easy to talk to Nate, Ashley, and Everett regularly.  We hope your December has been full of holiday cheer!
