Christmas was different this year. I had to work A LOT... pretty much every day from Friday until Wednesday after Christmas. I had to do my 'fair share' of hours in both departments (Peds and ER). We celebrated Christmas with Kale's family on the Saturday before. It worked out really good (I was able to get part of my shift at work covered). We had a delicious dinner at Outback and then headed to Uncle Justin's house. It's so nice! The girls loved their slippery floor and were running all over the place. We did Christmas there. It was wild! We just said go and wrapping paper went flying. Sophie got spoiled and got some really cute things!
Aunt Felicia and Uncle Justin had gingerbread houses for the girls to decorate. Sophie loved hanging out with the family and was really friendly!
I worked a grave on Christmas Eve, so our Christmas morning was only half the fun. Santa brought Sophie a new kitchen, lots of new food and dishes, and a shopping cart. Sophie was so excited. She loves that the kitchen makes sounds.
Since I had to be to work we saved our family presents until after, so we just went through our Christmas stockings. Kale got some new glasses for his brand new eyes (Thank you Lasik!)
I left for work and was anxious to get back. When I got back we went to my family's house to have Christmas there. Sophie loves being at her Grandma's house and was really excited to see her! We got spoiled - it was so fun. My mom got me a new iPhone and I was SO excited!!! So also made Sophie and I matching church outfits. She made Sophie this awesome dinosaur quilt (Sophie LOVES dinosaurs). Sophie loved it and laid it out to look at it before lounging on it the rest of the night. Thank you so much Mom!
When we got home, we did presents at our house. Sophie's favorites were her new princess accessories and a broom for her new kitchen. She is such a big girl! She loved opening presents and said Thank you and was so excited for them. It's really what makes Christmas fun.
Here is some of my new loot. Thanks Kale!
And Kale... he's got a lot of new sports outfits. He also got Rosetta Stone and is excited to try to learn Spanish as it would be very helpful with his job.
My cousin gave Sophie this little Graco set for her dolls. It's so cute! The swing actually swings and plays music, I can't believe how darling it is!
We had a good Christmas and are so blessed. How was yours?
