We spent Christmas again this year with all our family in Arkansas. We are so blessed that Nathan's job allows him to take off this time of year so we can be with our family. We left on Friday, Dec 23. We spent all day Saturday with my family. Lily and Jude came in the morning and played all day with the boys and Reese. Nathan cooked dinner for everyone that night and we opened presents and had dessert at Grandmothers.
On Sunday morning we woke up bright and early to see what Santa brought everyone. We had our Christmas time with "the Fants" and then got ready for church. We went to church at college with Grandma and Grandpa and spent Christmas day there, playing and opening presents. Shelby and Justin and Julie came that evening.
We had planned to go to Branson on Monday and Tuesday with Grandma and Grandpa, but the weather was showing 35 degrees and rain and snow, so we opted to stay here. We spent the next few days back and forth between families, watching movies, playing with cousins, eating, and just having a lot of fun. Nathan and I were able to go out one night and eat in Little Rock and do some shopping as well. It was a busy time, but we had a lot of fun. It was so great to see everyone and get to stay more than just a long weekend. We are looking forward, though, to getting home and unpacking and getting back to life aa we know it. Reese had a tough time sleeping so hopefully we can get back to "normal" and so will she.
Merry Christmas to all!
