It's weird to think that Christmas has already come and gone. There is so much build-up to the day, and just like that, it's over. We woke up on Christmas morning and had snowman pancakes with chocolate chips (okay, so our traditions aren't the healthiest - donuts on Christmas Eve and chocolate chip pancakes on Christmas!).
After breakfast, we opened our family presents. Andrew and I both went out on a limb and got each other things we know nothing about. I got Andrew a cordless jigsaw, and he got me a new sewing machine. I guess it's time to put each other to work! Joshua got some sing-along DVD's, bath stuff, and the Big Picture Story Bible (we knew he would get tons of gifts from the grandparents, and we were right!). After the gifts, we went to church and had a wonderful time celebrating the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ with our church family. It was really refreshing to go to church on Christmas day because it provided us with a time to stop and meditate on the truth of what Christmas is all about.
After church, we picked up Andrew's parents from the airport and headed over to my parents for dinner and gifts. The meal was great, being around family was awesome, and the gifts were plentiful. Joshua and Makayla were definitely spoiled in true grandparent fashion.
The funniest part of the whole night was watching my grandpa with his disposable camera. He made sure to capture every moment, and we would just laugh when we heard the click, followed by the wheel being cranked...good times!
