Christmas at home

Spending Christmas in our first house was amazing. We didn't know if we would have closed on the house by Christmas so it was really exciting to have our close date moved up to a week and a half before Christmas! The house was barely unpacked but we had room to move around and play inn and we had such a nice relaxing time together. Trent worked the whole week so that we could save PTO days but he came home around lunch time each day so it wasn't so bad.

We got Ethan a bike for Christmas. We are so excited to finally have a place for him to ride it around!

He in his jammie-jams that we got him that he wore on Christmas Even and then in the pajamas that Grandma and Grandpa gave him that he opened (and then put on) Christmas morning.


The little tree that we decorated, various presents, and the bike helmet from Nana and Papa.


There's the balance bike we got him. We hid it in the closet that is in this living room and had him go look in there for his final present. When he opened the closet door he exclaimed softly, but excitedly, "my bike!" He cannot get enough of it!


We feel so at home in our new house already. Like we belong here and always have. It certainly made spending our first Christmas alone a lot better than it could have been. Heavenly Father is so good to us.
