From our family to yours.... we wish you the happiest of holidays! Yep, we are one of those families that spend christmas eve and christmas day in matching jammies.
Christmas eve started with a party at Michelle, Josh, and Max's house. We are so thankful to have them as friends

Steve and I then mde a hearty stew for dinner (chicken and farro), folllowed by opening some presents from Grandma Lynn and Grandpa Mike. The handknit mermaid tails were a hit, and so was the telescope (for Carolyn) and school set (for Lizzie).
The girls exchanged their sister gifts, too. I think they may have liked the gifts they picked out more than they received. A magic kit and oil/water illusion for Lizzie, and yoyo and pin thing for Carolyn.
Christmas Day started around 830 for us. The girls emerged to find their requested gifts of roller skates and purole cowboy boots.
They also got a few gifts from us -- a clock that sings bird songs every hour plus a newton's cradle for Carolyn. Lizzie got a chime and a light-bright type of game.

We then enjoyed a delightful brunch at RJ's with our neighbor Bryan and his kids Gavin and Ella.
And, by early evening, a whole slew of families came over for cocktails, make-your-own pizzas, and plenty of games. (No photos)
What a wonderful few days with friends. We are thankful!
