Blessed to spend time with family this Christmas Eve. We went to Mimi’s for lunch, secret Santa, and fabulous fellowship. Our prayers were answered this year for baby Zoe to be home for Christmas. She actually got to come home on her momma’s birthday on the 22nd, best birthday present ever for Stephanie. After the festivities at Mimi’s we headed to candle light service at Fullness Christian Fellowship before coming back to our house to have soup and decorate cookies for Santa. Sweet Ivy feel asleep during the candle light service long enough to power up till almost 10 o’clock that evening. Both girlies asked to sleep with mommy and daddy but we thought everyone needed good sleep after a full day and looking forward to another full day on Christmas. However, Lisa couldn’t sleep so she ended up laying with the girls in the bed with the girls since Leia woke up in the wee morning hours. Sweet moments talking to Leia, praying over them as they slept, and getting up extra early with Leia watching TV and the twinkling lights waiting till we could wake everyone else in the house up. God I pray both our girls will know the true meaning of Christmas and accept the gift you gave the world of your Son, Jesus on the first Christmas Day.

Fun with props this year

Blessed with plenty of good food but the fellowship is always the best

Sweet Zoe was the center of attention and we all were so thankful for the answered prayers for her to spend Christmas with us
