Christmas recap!

Our Christmas holiday started on Wednesday December 23, when we traveled up the road to Ryan's parent's house to start the festivities! We opened presents with them on Christmas Eve, joining Ryan's out-of-town brother and family via web cam. Christmas morning we woke up early to drive home, open presents at our house, attend mass, come home for lunch and naps, then go to my uncle and aunt's house for a feast of a Christmas dinner. We opened presents and ate dessert at my grandmother's house, and came home late to all collapse in bed!
