Christmas Eve and Day

This little guy enjoyed himself and his presents on Christmas Eve....

  But unfortunately this little girl had a rough beginning of the night.

 On Christmas Eve my whole family, cousins, aunts, uncles, and all go to church together and then to my grandmother's house to exchange gifts and play games.


This year was a little different though because in the middle of church Maci Rose threw up out of no where. In her 2.5 years of life we've never seen her throw up or have a stomach bug (knock on wood), so this was a first for her and us. She had to take her dress off so we left Carter with the family and headed home to get her a new outfit and to see how she felt.


Everything seemed fine with her for the next hour so we went to my grandmothers to celebrate with everyone. The only thing we can conclude about her incident is that she had a slight cold last week and we gave her mucinex on an empty stomach before church. After she ate she was absolutely fine. A mommy lesson learned!


Exchanging presents....

 Here are all the grandchildren and great grandchildren. I'm the oldest!

 There are 5 great grandchildren and the 6th is on the way. Besides Maci Rose, all the great grandchildren are boys including the one on the way!

Christmas Day

Look at what Santa Claus brought this year...

And this is the first time we've had a white Christmas!!

 We went to Aunt Mary and Uncle Ant's house for lunch and the last exchanging of presents. This is Maci Rose wearing her new princess set.

 And Carter got this adorable outfit...thanks Em!

 We then went to my dad's family Christmas dinner. (this is the Italian side and there are over 75 people in one house, it's crazy but good to see everyone every year).

These 2 are cousins....can you tell which one is Maci Rose??

We had a fabulous Christmas and hope you did as well!
