We kicked off Christmas as usual with Christmas Eve service with my family at our church. I was very hopeful to get to see the whole thing for the first time in the past few years (since it is a little long for the little ones!) We made it much further than normal, but Landon taking a break to go hang out in the lobby sent Meredith to tears wanting to see him. So we followed behind Uncle Neil and got to play with Meredith's best friends Sarah and Rachel until it was time to light the candles. I convinced Meredith she would love the pretty lights and we were able to finish out the evening with everyone else.
We headed back to my parent's house for dinner and then lots of fun with the family. Meredith had helped Gigi with adding lots and lots of bows to everyone's presents, which made them even more festive!

Meredith was still not too sure what to think of Santa visiting our house, but anytime there are cookies involved in an activity, Meredith is all for it!
