Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 2013

Christmas Eve we went to the Leavells house for lunch and to IPC for the 4 pm service. Then we went to Riveroaks for their 6 pm service. After church, we went back to my parents and ate Seafood gumbo and played bingo, my family's tradition. Ford and I both won at Bingo! Big night for us!I got an amazon gift card and he got a wine holder. Bingo is very exciting. My dad's prizes never disappoint.

Christmas day we woke up at our house and did our own Christmas with the 4 of us. Ford's parents and Doug came over for a little while to see the girls with their kitchen. We then went to my parents for the day. The girls loved unwrapping their gifts. They especially loved their cozy coupes. They stayed in their cars most of the day. We got to Skype with Clarke and Evan was able to put Clarke on the tv. The girls kept wanting to kiss his face. It was really sweet but I think it made him miss being home. We definitely missed him a lot. Ev was great with the girls. He drove them all over my parents house in their cars. He stayed up until 3 am on Christmas eve putting their cars together. We are definitely blessed with extended family that loves our children. Here are some pictures from Christmas day.

Walking in to their gifts. I love Ford so much for so many reasons. One reason is because he wanted their kitchen wrapped bc he knew how much fun they would have opening it. He worked so hard to get it all wrapped up.

Evan, hope Sally's face tells you how much she loves her gift! Thanks for working so hard on them.
