BUSY Christmas!

I always get a little melancholy after Christmas, especially when I have such a great one! This year was probably the busiest I've ever had - Daniel and I celebrated 5 Christmases in 2 days!! Yes, we were exhausted, not to mention stuffed - my waistline is most definitely feeling the effects. 

On Christmas Eve, my family hosted my dad's side of the family for brunch, then I hurried to Daniel's mom's for lunch to celebrate with them, then we ran to Grandma Juanita's for the biggest Christmas we've had in a long time. We were around 35 this year including 2 first Christmases! It was baby heaven :) After breakfast, mimosas and opening presents on Christmas day, Dan and I were off again to his mom's for another large family affair. We spent the evening with the Peters clan then retired to my house for a rousing game of Texas Hold 'em with Zack and the Hooper brothers. 

Santa was VERY good :) But God was even better. The holidays were definitely filled with a lot of love. As busy and as tired as I was, I was so happy to be surrounded by people that I love.
