Best Christmas Ever

Christmas 2010 was the best we've ever had. Having Max as a part of our family this year was the greatest gift of all. We started our Christmas celebration on Christmas Eve morning. Before we had the baby we use to take Mook to the dog park every Saturday and Sunday. We haven't gone since the baby was born because at first I was too sore from the c-section. Once I recovered from that a cold front came in and has been here ever since. When we woke up on Christmas Eve it was in the 70's so we decided to pack up the baby, load Mook in the car, and attempt our first trip to the dog park. Mook has been so good with the baby we had to show him how much we appreciate it. He barely leaves Max's side. The dog park was a success. Once it warms up again I'm sure we'll get back into our weekend habit.

 

We decided to try out a new church on Christmas Eve. We arrived at the Church by the Glades around 5:30 for their 3D Christmas special. The band was amazing. We sang several Christmas songs and then moved into the sermon. The pastor talked about gifts and all I could think about was the wonder gift we had been blessed with...Max :) Somehow Max slept through all the loud music and most of the sermon. He didn't wake up until the very end when it was really quiet and then started to cry. It was pretty funny.

 

We woke up really early Christmas morning. Mike made breakfast and then we exchanged gifts. Max enjoyed some time under his rain forest safari and then took a little snooze. Later Grandma & Grandpa Killi came over and we skyped with Jenn, Ben, Owen, and Vivi. We had a fabulous Christmas meal and then took some much needed naps.
