Christmas vacation kicked off with a quick trip to Dallas for the Cowboys v. Packers game. Clay and I bought the tickets as our gift to each other. What a game! The Pack pulled out a win in the last quarter. We had a blast. Definitely a once in a lifetime experience!
First of all, with so many people our Christmas tree was overflowing. While Christmas is more than gift giving, with all the kiddos around it was fun to see their eyes sparkle at all the gifts!
Before my parents arrived we took the kids to see Christmas lights. In my opinion the lights around Chesapeake's campus are AWESOME. So we also toured the Nichols Hills area and found this beauty!
Look out Griswalds!
My parents played Santa Clause for our church small group. They enjoyed seeing all the kiddos!
Grace gives Santa a hug!
Lily explains what she wants for Christmas.
Clementine is happy Santa brought candy!
Pierce is like his momma... he's scared of Santa!
For a girls night out, Mom, Alyson and I went to a local Paint and Palette class to brush up on our artistic skills!
Look out art world here we come!
Finally, we had the BIG day. Let the gift opening extravaganza begin!
Pierce is OBSESSED with shoes, so Aunt Alyson needed to make sure he had cool kicks!
