Christmas Eve and Christmas Day were pretty wonderful. On Christmas Eve we went to the Menlove family party where we enjoyed a yummy turkey and ham dinner, played white elephant games, and passed out presents from Grandma and Grandpa.
Afterwards we went to my families to open sibling gifts and hang out.
Clark, Owen and I went home and enjoyed our first Christmas Eve evening and Christmas at home, just the three of us. It was different to be sure but I loved every second of it.
We were so excited to get Owen up to open presents. He got to see Santa a couple times this season but he didn't completely understand what he does. He still loved opening the presents though, all the presents.. even if they weren't his :)
We met up with my family and Lori and Allen's for breakfast and then headed back to my family's house where we opened more presents from my parents and hung out for the rest of the day. It was different this year because everyone was gone. Amy and Hillary didn't come home, Hannah and Tyler left to spend the day with Tyler's family, and Travis left to spend the day with his new girlfriend, Angie. We still had fun though. We lounged, played games, watched movies, we got to talk to Clark's brother who is on a mission, we skyped Amy and her family and talked to Hillary on the phone, and ate a whole lot.
Hope everyone had an equally great Christmas!
