Merry Christmas!

We prepared ourselves for a Christmas that was going to look very different from every Christmas we've shared with our families. I think we did a pretty good job about being intentional with new traditions and memories. Instead of a big baking day with all of the sisters, aunts, cousins and mom, we had our own little baking day. Dad even helped out in the kitchen. 

 We went to look at Christmas lights. We stumbled onto a neighborhood that had incredible displays and a whole tour. We ate Wendy's as we creeped along the tour. Micah loved the lights so much that he actually started saying words! He would point at every new house "dis" "dis" "dis"... this, this this.

 We had our first Christmas Eve service with Frisco Fields Church. 


 We fed reindeer their food. Sophia brought a bag home from school with oatmeal and glitter. We will definitely make sure the reindeer are well fed from now on. They loved it. 


After the service we headed to Chili's for dinner. It took us a while to find something that was open. Who knew?!

It was different, but very special. Kind of like this whole past year :)
