What a busy, wonderful time of year. Each year it amazes me how much preparation and anticipation goes into the holidays and then it is over so fast. Each day was packed with so many memories, I will split up the posts.
Christmas Eve:
Justus had to work a half day today, so I went to TWO yoga classes at PowerLife Yoga and the mall in between. I enjoyed getting a good workout in before all the food to come. After my first barre class we saw it had snowed- we were all very excited. I had really wanted a white Christmas!
Justus and I later headed to Boone so we could make it in time for frosting cookies. This year's frosting session got a little R rated. The bell didn't look like a bell and Santa had his naughty-bits showing. Oh my! We got all the ridiculousness out of our system (for the most part) before church. Grandma came out for our picture tradition in front of the tree. We all headed to a beautiful Christmas Eve service and then back to our house for goodies and catching-up. It was great to see my family, especially Sam since he is now in Illinois. I love Christmas Eve and the traditions my mom has maintained over the years.
