We had a perfect Christmas and it was so much fun celebrating Cwyn's first one! We started our festivities on Christmas Eve morning by opening presents and having breakfast with just our little family of three. Cwyn opened her two big presents from us and then we made pancakes and played with Cwyn's toys all morning/afternoon. Around 4:00 we packed up and went to my parents house for dinner. We ate with my family and then went to Candlelight Service at church. The service was simple and relaxed.. It felt so cozy and homey. We stayed after and chatted with friends before driving over to Colt's parents to have snacks and hang out for the rest of the night. My family all came over, as well. We've done this after church get together for 3 years in a row now and it is so much fun! After we left their house we went back to my parents to spend the night. The next morning we woke up at my parents house (which was THE.BEST!) and opened presents and had breakfast. Then Colt, Cwyn and I left to go to my in-laws to open presents there before we headed up north to spend the rest of Christmas with my mother-in-laws family. It really was such a great day! Cwyn was so spoiled and she got to meet more of her family. All in all, despite its busyness, we loved our first Christmas with our Cwyn! And today daddy is off to work while Cwyn and I spend the day cleaning up and playing with her new toys! I hope you all had just as awesome of a day as we did! As always, we remember the reason for the season and spent time as a family thanking God for our many blessings, especially the gift of His son! I never make New Years resolutions but I do love looking back on all the great things that happened that year and make a list of things we'll look forward to in the next year. I'll be posting more about that next week! Enjoy the (few) pictures we took of Cwyn on Christmas.. We were having too much fun to stop and get lots of pics!
