Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas

Dear Lily,

This year, we got to celebrate Christmas three times: once at home, once at Grammy and Pa's, and once at Nana and Papa's.  I love it when the holidays are filled with spending time with the family.

A few weeks before Christmas, you helped us decorate (and undecorate) the tree.




This was your gift from Mom and Dad.  Charlie and Ella both have their own chairs, so you needed a chair to sit in too.

Then it was off to Grammy and Pa's house to play with cousins and open presents.



You're not really a fan of the posed pictures yet.

On Christmas Eve, we went to Nana and Papa's house. You look like such a California girl riding the skateboard.



Nana had everyone re-enact the Nativity.  You were too little to participate, but don't worry, I'm sure that you will have many other chances.

Nana called in a special favor to Santa to have him come and deliver your Christmas jammies.



I hope that we will be able to gather together often as an extended family and celebrate the birth of the Savior.  I bet that it makes Him smile to watch all of you cousins playing together.  I love you soooo much.

Love,
Mom
