Before I give you a recap of our marathon of Christmases, we had lots of smaller events during this Christmas season. It's such a shame this time of the year is so busy, hardly being able to think of Christ's birth. But I do kinda love the busyness and all the time with friends and family that comes with this time of the year, and I'm always sad when it's over.
The weekend before Christmas was a busy one. Friday night I went to Brittany M's personal shower. It was a lot of fun, and there was lots of great ideas for some of my friends in the future. ;) Brittany is marrying someone from Roanoke which I am extremely excited about... finally one of my good friends will be there! Can't wait to see her twice a week! :)
Saturday was a busy one. I had maybe procrastinated with cleaning/making food for Saturday night when the "Core 4" as we used to call it, came over. So Saturday I got to do a lot of grocery shopping, cooking/baking, and lots of cleaning. Daniel is so good with helping me out though and I'm so thankful. He was the designated dish washer, and he dealt with me running around like crazy. We make a good team. :)
Here we all are in our little tiny kitchen. Our first official potluck, and the first time I had ever hosted an official potluck. :) Troy finally has a guy to keep him company, and now us girls have a little baby to fight over. :) Seth & Adam came over for a bit and crashed the party...which is who got to take this picture for us. :)
Little Cyrus...oh he is getting so big and is so so precious!

Sunday night Daniel & I had our own Christmas. We got some take-out food and ate at home. We just relaxed, opened presents, and watched a Christmas movie. It was wonderful. After church on Sunday's we always go to one of our parents, and we had never had a Sunday at home. So it was super nice to be able to do that for once.

Stay tuned...
