the most wonderful day of the year

This year was our first Christmas being married and it was wonderful. Both of us are really close with our families so the idea of trying to split up time on Christmas eve and Christmas day was one that was not easy. However, it worked out perfectly we got to spend lots of time with both families and neither of us had to miss the things that were important to us.

On Christmas eve we had dinner with the Mulcock family and opened presents from grandma and grandpa Clyde.

After we went over to my parents for "silent night" and christmas movies. 

Alex and Elena read the nativity story and set up figurines alex colored.

Christmas morning Matt and I opened presents from each other at our condo and had a few cinnamon knots  for breakfast #1

 After opening presents together we went to the Mulcocks for breakfast #2 and opening presents

the kids are definately the center of attention on Christmas morning they make it so much fun!

Next it was over to my parents for opening presents and then skiing with the whole family.



Skiing with the fam on Christmas day is probably one of my favorite traditions.

After all our back and forth in the morning we had a nice relaxing Christmas night playing games and watching modern family with the Mulcocks. I already can't wait for next Christmas!
