I was hopeful that the girls would really sleep in this morning since bedtime came so late last night. At 7:30 a.m. Olivia came into our room...Wes and I were both still sleeping. I told her it was still night-time (easy to say as it was still very dark out) and that she could come sleep with us. That lasted for 5 minutes.
We enjoyed the slow start to our day. Pancakes for breakfast. Then, I started pulling the decorations off of the tree and just kept on going until all of the Christmas decorations were packed up and put away for another year. I mostly did this...with a little help from the girls and Wes. In the background I listened to NuCerity Training on goal-setting. It was awesome.
This afternoon we got to go to my dad and Jenn's. Dylan was there too. Charity, Naomi, and their families (minus Trevor). Olivia and Aubrey were fascinated by their bird, Buzz. Olivia got to feed him through the cage. And, he even danced for us! Exciting stuff!!
Gifts were exchanged, food was eaten, and memories were made. I love how often the girls get to see their cousins and extended family!!
Daddy put the girls to bed at 5:30 (lots of sleep to catch up on) while I ran some errands and continued working on the kitchen chairs (they are done now and I LOVE them!). Wes and I finished the evening off by reading in front of the fire.
