Merry Christmas!

We started with the children's mass on Christmas Eve. Anastasia wasn't feeling well, so we gave her medicine and had her sit in the back of the church. Mariana generously offered to sit with her so I could be with the rest of the family. Such a sweet girl. I relieved her after communion.
Then we went to Pawpaw and Manah's for an enchilada dinner I had made ahead of time and opening gifts!

SO precious in her Christmas dress
Sweet sick girl taking it easy
 
I think this was actually a gift to me from Manah and Pawpaw...a way for the younger ones to burn off energy when they can't go outside!

Christmas morning we opened our own family's gifts. We started youngest to oldest and all watched. It's just so fun to see everyone enjoying the giving and the receiving!
 
 

Her sisters went in together to buy Allia this statue of her confirmation saint that she has wanted ever since confirmation!
It was so nice to have good weather so we could enjoy the outdoor gifts!
