Christmas 2015

Christmas this year was magical, yet again.  We celebrated with James' family and loved the time together.
We enjoyed attending parties with friends and family.
With lots of treats to try
Santa brought everyone new pajamas
We moved into our new house and got up a few decorations
On Christmas Eve morning we enjoyed a girl's morning out to breakfast at Mimi's Cafe.
Brielle was excited to join us and loved the chance to eat crepes with nutella
That night we celebrated at Larry and Lisa's house.
We all love the tradition of the taco truck party.  I am pretty sure Ethan ate at least 8 tacos.  
Christmas morning was so much fun.  Preston didn't understand or remember Christmas before it happened, but now, a month later he is still talking about it.  'Jingle Bells' is still sung frequently and is often requested as his bedtime song.
Every meal was incredible, as is always the case with so many good cooks in the family.
The kids did a scavenger hunt for their present-a trip to Texas for a Finlay family reunion to visit Steve and Alana before they move.  The excitement of looking for the clues proved a little bit too much for Ethan, who in his hurry ran himself into the swimming pool.
It was a blessing to make more memories with 4 of the kids' Great Grandparents and all 10 Finlay cousins together.
