Christmas Eve

I didn't mean to take a break but the last few days have been packed. Plus we have all these new cool toys around to play with and a new couch! Dave and I a few years ago decided to do a joint gift for each other. Something that we need/want around the house. This year was a couch. I will post pictures of it soon. But here is our Christmas Eve...

We spent the day at Dave's dads house. We had a huge dinner, celebrated Elinor's birthday and had fun with family. Ruby and Reid were there which made Elinor over the top excited. We have spent so many holidays with them in MA. They always invited us when we stayed home and didn't have anywhere to go, like last Christmas. It's so cute to see Elinor ask for her aunt, uncle and cousins now. She is finally remembering their names and loves to spend time with them. Makes me so happy to live closer to everyone now. 


look at the explosion of gifts under pop pops tree! 
leave it to Elinor to find a crown laying around the house and claim it.
Elinor was taking random gifts all night and trying to open them. She was good about putting them back when we said they weren't for her but that didn't stop her from trying over and over. I love Christmas so much more now having Elinor. Watching the kids get so excited about everything is so cute. They were even excited watching each other open gifts and passing out gifts. It was so sweet.
 These three are too funny. I love the pictures Justine took too.

Tomorrow will be our Christmas morning post!

Christmas Eve

Obviously Elinor has no idea what Christmas is. The presents have been under the tree the whole time except one that I hadn't wrapped and it was just sitting in her closet. Dave's dad and Cindy were in town and stopped by to drop off some gifts and hang out for a bit that night. I like this not traveling for Christmas thing and it was nice to have some family around. Ellie has been super animated and silly lately so we were able to catch a little of it after they left.
