Christmas 2015

Aren't we cute? :)

As usual, Christmas 2015 was a practice in visiting a million households to celebrate with family. We had so much fun! We started with a celebration with Wilmarth family members at my Dad's house. We had a great time eating together, opening presents, and playing!

Julia visited with Santa at a school event (sorry for the poor photography!)

A week or so later, we celebrated again. This time, we traveled to my Mom's house to visit with Roxy and DeAnna and their families. The kids had such a fun time playing together, which is really a gift, since they barely get to see one another. It was sad when everybody had to go home!

When Christmas Eve finally arrived, we had already celebrated a lot... but why stop? ;) So that afternoon, we headed to Rochelle to see my Grandpa Supler at his apartment. Luke came in from Denver for a few days, which was great, as he hadn't seen him in months. Later in the day, we headed to Mom and Randy's for dinner and presents. That night, we went back to Wheaton to sleep at home and greet Christmas morning in our own house for the first time EVER! We weren't sure if Santa would know where to find us.

Christmas morning, we slept in a bit and then opened some awesome gifts from Santa and each other. Owen got a giant stuffed Leonardo - one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. He loved it! Julia got a doll from one of her favorite movies - My Little Ponies. Both were pretty pleased with Santa. Julia gave me a leopard print pen with purple feathers and she gave Joe (the Grinch, himself) a Santa hat ;) The kids also learned on Christmas morning about our trip to Florida. See the next few posts for more info! Hope your holiday was as fun as ours!
