Christmas was such a fun 4 days for our family this year! The girls had a blast seeing family and getting lots of new toys. It all started for us on Christmas Eve morning when we celebrated Christmas at home just us and the girls. When Ryan woke up and saw all the presents under the tree she was so excited. Scott asked her who they were for and she said, "All for Bek!" We felt bad because she thought it was still Bekah's birthday and didn't know she was getting presents too. But we quickly explained that it was Jesus' Birthday and everyone gets presents for His birthday. Ryan was then even more excited. So Daddy and Ryan then made us some homemade pancakes and quickly ate them as Ryan instructed us to. Then we read the story of Jesus' birthday and then of course sang happy birthday to Him. Then we had a blast opening all of our presents. Ryan got a new big girl Dora bike, new bible, candy, and Candy land. Bekah got bowling, Monkey for sleeping with, and clock puzzle. Bekah really didn't care too much about opening presents she just wanted us to go play. Ryan however really enjoyed it all this year.
On Christmas day we went to Grandma and Grandpa Cupp's house to celebrate Christmas with my brothers and Sister-in law (Scott and Laura and Joie) neice (Sydney) and Nephew (Chase). We had such a nice dinner and more fun opening presents. It was fun to watch the cousins all play together. Ryan got lots of Thomas bedroom items like a lamp, pillow, and laundry basket. It doesn't really match the girl colored trains in her room but she loves it all anyway! Bekah got the new Elmo Live. Both the girls absolutely love playing with him and let me tell you he eats batteries!
The next stop was Grandma and Grandpa Moon's house. We of course spent the entire day at their house. Scott Brother (Tim) and Sister (Sister) were both there with Tim Fiance and Melissa's husband. We had a nice time visiting with everyone and eating and opening more presents. The girls got so much stuff at their house I can't even think of anything. Im sure they enjoy it all! I do know they had a great time!
Our last stop was on the North side of Indy where my brothers and I with our families met up with my Dad and Grandma Jarred. It was such a nice visit. We really enjoyed getting to see them as it had been 1 1/2 yrs since we'd last saw them. Bekah was able to meet her Grandpa Jarred and Great Grandma Jarred for the first time. Im so glad everyone was able to make that work!
I must say that after these four days we were all exhausted! I couldn't believe how tired I was, but it was worth it! The girls had a great time and still are now that they are able to play with all of their new toys and books! I have never seen so much stuff all at one time! We are so thankful to have been so blessed!
