Day 22: Unwrap a new Christmas Ornament and Hang on our Family Tree
I didn't get a chance to buy a new ornament before this one came around so I took Sophi with me to pick one out. She picked out the Candy Cane ornament, her favorite candy of the holiday! She also received a super cute owl ornament from Lolly a few days before. We let Sophi hang both of these ornaments on the tree herself. This is were they ended up!
Day 23: Make Gingerbread Houses
We all LOVED doing this together as a family! Sophi consumed a lot of candy that morning but Josh and I both commented that this is a tradition we want to keep every year! We went to Monkey Joes afterwards to work off all the sugar and even got a nap out of Sophi that afternoon!
Day 24: Strahan Family Christmas and Open one Gift from Under the Tree
That morning we each got to open one gift, our Christmas Pajamas to wear Christmas Day! Before heading up to Columbia, TN for the day to celebrate Christmas with Josh's family, we discovered that Mary and Joseph had arrived at the stable, anxiously awaiting the birth of their son.
Here are a few pics from our time with the Strahans!
Day 25: Celebrate Jesus' Birthday!!
Here is recap of our special day celebrating our Savior's birth, our first time to be in our home for Christmas in 7 years!
In Sophi's words "Jesus isn't in Mary's tummy anymore!"
Eating lots of candy!
The excitement in finding out that she can drive her new pink car all by herself!
Taking Shiloh for a ride!
Opening presents!
Watching new movies!
We pray that your Christmas was a joyous and happy celebration full of the love of Christ!
