Christmas Celebrations

Christmas is always a very special holiday but this year it was extra special to be able to see the experience through Ruby’s eyes. Obviously Ruby didn’t understand the whole idea of Christmas but she sure enjoyed all of the traditions, decorations, and unwrapping of gifts all along the way. Chris and I loved having our own family to enjoy Christmas morning with. Now if we can just find some space to store all of the toys Ruby received!

Here are a few of the highlights of Christmas this year:

Sunday Dec 20th - Christmas Dinner and presents with Nana and Pops Candlish

Ruby was ALL about this sippy cup from Nana C!
